I realized that I made a big tactical mistake by not applying to Chicago and Wharton in the first round. Because both these schools give their decisions early, it makes it easier to decide if one wants to apply for 2nd round or not. Now I am left with the unenviable task of applying to 5 different schools for the 2nd round . I would get to know my results from Ross and Tuck only after the 2nd round deadlines. That means I am blowing nearly S$2000 on the second round apps. Well I hope all this investment and effort leads to atleast 1 admit from a good school.
I have completed 1st drafts for all schools except Cornell. I have to send my 2nd draft for Darden for review. Then I have to chase my recommenders to submit their recommendations on time. Phew what a Christmas and New Year this is turning out to be. I promise I am going to party like mad during the Chinese New Year holidays - if i get an admit from Ross/Tuck. I have put in nearly two years of sweat and hardwork for this process. Starting from my GMAT, which i gave twice, to the application process, it has been one hell of a journey. There are many aspects of it that I could have done better but there is no point brooding over it. Its time to put the best foot forward.
