郁闷！赶不上Duke第2轮了！

wdzc

眼看还有1小时45分钟就是Duke第2轮的deadline了，本来计划今天submit出去了，可是老公对我第3篇及其不满意。说没有写出我的优点。我从前几天开始，加班加点地赶进度，可惜还是不满意。只好痛苦地看着时间一秒一秒的溜走。已经很久没有睡一个好觉了。

看来只能赶第3轮了。是不是第3轮就没有机会了？不是如果仓促地submit资料赶上今天的deadline了，只怕也是没有希望的。现在后悔没有早点动手，不过后悔也没有用了。

今天不知道有几位XDJM赶上了Duke第2轮的deadline。哪位Duke的校友能不能告诉一下，第3轮又没有希望？ 我不是牛人，我只是一个普通的申请者。我已经预订了1月份的on campus interview. 如果没有希望的话，我就不往里面砸钱了。175刀呀！我已经花了28+15送G/T成绩了。

Same situation as you and get feedback from Katiem but still puzzled: try or not?


Dear thinkpador,

Thank you for your interest in The Fuqua School of Business.  Round 3 will
be more competitive, but we do admit international applicants in R3.

Best regards,
The Duke MBA-Daytime Admissions

Calm down. You do have chance in R3.
Try to make your application material as strong as posible if you decide to catch R3.

不知道第3轮的比第2轮competitive的程度如何？估计只有AdCom的人才知道一些。
老公劝我：人各有命！ 也只有这么安慰自己了。 也与thinkpador共勉！

sfish 兄弟；

你赶上今天的deadline 了吗？ 祝你好运！

sfish

Yes, I already submitted. Thank you.
My suggestion is if you are really interested in one school, you should visit school. This not olny gives you first hand experience, but also helps you to write your essays.

thinkpador

agree!
To wdzc:
    Since you have invested so much(time, money and painstaking effort), please do not give up!
