Well I finally got my fist admit!!

An admissions lady from INSEAD called me 20 minutes ago and said that she wanted to personally congratulate me on being admitted and that I would be receiving an official email sometime next week.

Only one more decision to wait for...

Best of luck to the rest of you!!

First, congrats. Thats awesome.

Second, I'm pissed off because I thought they released decisions on one day (the 16th) and now I'm going to be super anxious for the next week.

Thanks. I'm still waiting to hear from a couple US-based ultra-elites but Insead is the place I want to be so I'm pretty eager to hear back.

Hey Hosam,
How many interviews did you have? And what did they ask you for the interview? Do you think you could help us poor souls still trying to apply?

Wow! Awesome! You'll be the first of us to finish their MBA too! Huge congrats. I hear INSEAD is hardcore and tons of fun.

So many of these threads the last few days I feel like I've missed them lately.

In any case, it's hammer time:

thanks for that party rhyme :)

necro, I applied to start off in fontainebleau. I do kinda wish I had applied for a singapore start though. A friend of mine moved to the singapore campus in Jan and says he loves it. He goes to school in shorts and sandals every day and has already been to phuket and bali to party.
