I reviewed the entire application like more than 40 times. I didn't even realize that it was already 11th October, the last day for submission. I read and re-read my essays until a time when I forgot why I was reading them. My friend called me up and warned me that I would miss the deadline. She gave me a deadline of 30 minutes to submit the app. :) Finally I hit the submit button at 2.30 pm, 11 Oct, India time.!!!
The sad part is that I am lagging behind my schedule for Kellogg applications. I am not sure whether I can complete the app and review them to my satisfaction. I have more or less decided to push Kellogg to Round 2. But the strange part is that I have already submitted my Part 1 of Kellogg app. So, does that mean I will interview with Kellogg before I submit my applications?? Will have to confirm with Kellogg Adcom.
MIT Sloan will be my next target as I have time till 30th Oct to submit. I have decided to take a break this weekend to cool off my brain, which has been working over-time since last 2-3 months.
I was thinking how to spend my time this weekend and happened to take a look at Rita Maria's Wharton diaries post: Things to Do to Celebrate the Submission of your Round 1 Application. She perfectly describes my fears - that my friends might have forgotten me!!!! She says "Call your friends who aren't applying to B-school. Hopefully, they'll remember who you are since you probably haven't spoken to them in many months."
I have decided to call for a party tonite...probably in some pub that plays rock music. Wanna listen to "In the end, it doesn't even matter" by Linkin Park and head bang till I unwind completely!! :)

I'm in the same boat! Now that I'm done with Wharton, I want to relax. I hate that Kellogg is due so soon after! My husband wants me to push to round 2. I guess it all depends on whether I can get some drafts of all the essays done this weekend. At least 2 of them overlap somewhat (for me).
