Yes, I have submitted my IMD application in time for Round 1. Yes, with all the recommendations. To get three relatively senior and very busy people to work for me and make it before the deadline was the hardest part of the application process. This is not to say that cracking the GMAT or writing the essays was easy. It was not, but at least that was something I could control.

Now is the time when a sensible applicant starts worrying about financing and whether the school will call for an interview. Probably I should also start re-reading my submitted application, discover a mistake and get a heart attack. Furthermore, I am hardly a clear admit at IMD, what with the uber-impressive student profiles posted on their website.

Right now though, I don’t care about any of that. I have passed one major hurdle and it feels great. The INSEAD R1 deadline is in more than a month, I have pretty advanced drafts of all essays and the two remaining recommenders are warmed up. There’s even time for a quick getaway in a five start hotel with my girl. Life, for the time being, is good.
