Kellogg is submitted yay! Only frustrating thing is that one of my recommenders STILL has not submitted (even though I've sent the email 3x sine October) so I hope he gets it in before the deadline. It's a bit unclear, however, because Kellogg states its deadline to be 1/5/07 but gives no indication of the time the app is due. Any ideas?
A lot of people have asked me why I am applying to so many schools. The truth is, I am doubtful of getting admittance anywhere, and so I feel like I have to apply to a lot of places to get in somewhere. I really really want an MBA and to learn about all the things in business school! What do you guys think? Better to apply to a lot or does it look bad to committees? Better to apply to a few and if no admission apply for 08 admission?
This whole process is so crazy and confusing, but a little bit fun too, like a game!
Good luck to everyone else submitting Round 2!

The deadline is 11:59 p.m tomorrow. I called the office to find out.
And I dont think it's bad to apply to many schools. I dont think adcom would really care.
The point is that it takes serious effort (atleast for me) to get a good app. I have only submitted 3, almost done with 4, and dont know if I can do anymore.
I like your Top Ten shotgun approach. :)
What are your stats like? And which is your safety school? :P
Dont fret over applying to many schools or about the recommenders. I had my wharton reco go in just 2 hours before the deadline. In R1 my manager submitted his reco 2 days after the deadline ( that's because Chiacgo allowed him to do so). Anxiety is a part of the Apps.
All the best !
I would have wanted to apply to a lot of schools as well, and I think I would have had enough energy to do a lot of applications. My main roadblock was not wanting to give my recommenders too much trouble --- I didn't ask for a generic letter and instead asked them to actually answer the guide questions of each school. 3 apps is good progress though ... good work. =)
If you can do that many applications without sacrificing quality, go for it.
