Wharton postponed

Not sure about the other Wharton R1 aspirants, but this one couldn't make the deadline. I've postponed my app to R2 because I couldn't get my essays and one recommendation to a satisfactory state in time. I want to submit the best application can vs. rushing it for the sake of making it in R1. This way, whether I get the admit or dinged, I know I'll have done the best I could. I think it would be a lot worse if I get dinged and have this nagging feeling that it could have been because I didn't put forward my best work.

I went out last night to celebrate my relief from the postponed submission, but now I'm having a killer hangover. It's like there're these little dwarves inside my head pounding at my skull with a sledgehammer. Anyway, I am back to work on Monday, so I hope to at least do some more essay editing before then. Tuck is looming up closely now with the Dec 1 deadline (I've dropped Sloan). Good luck to all the other R1 hopefuls for your schools.
