Congrats to all the other people who received a JS2 yesterday. Thank you to the people ITT have been extremely supportive/ calmed my anxiety during the long wait. I have finally calmed down from my initial excitement.

To all those still waiting for JS2s: they didn't call in chronological order, so don't fret if your interview date seems to have been skipped over.

Scoobers I'm pulling for you to get a JS1.

Congrats to everyone who got a JS2 already!

For joint degree applicants, is there any indication that getting in to one school improves your odds of getting in to the other? I was admitted to HBS last week, and I'm hoping that helps push me across the line to a JS2 this week.

Any idea on how they notify you if you miss the call? Just left the country for vacation today, so no phone for 3 weeks. Do they send an email if they can't reach you?

I assume so. Several people reported receiving official e-mails after their JS2 yesterday. I would expect an e-mail if the call doesn't go through. Enjoy the vacay!

<fingers crossed>

For those of you still waiting on a JS1 email, just wanted to let you know I received one about an hour ago. (Went complete on 12/3.) Don't lose hope!

My HLS acceptance is absolutely going to my HBS app, which I have been waiting to submit for that very reason.



Nobody at either school has specifically said it helps, but at both schools they said you should tell the other one because they don't communicate about that stuff all that often.

Just so you guys know, I'm saving post 1,000 for either a JS2 or a Merry Christmas post. So if I get a JS2 today or tomorrow (doubtful, but stranger things have happened in my life) I may not be able to tell you until after a fair amount of shitpoasting. Or maybe JS will time it perfectly.
