When I first wrote "The Waiting Game" , I thought that the waiting time after submitting the application was quite stressful.  Why then am I biting my nails?

When I first wrote "The Waiting Game" , I thought that the waiting time after submitting the application was quite stressful.  Needless to say, now that I have completed my interviews, I can add that this waiting time produces even more anxiety.  The difference now is that I am now waiting on an explicit rejection or acceptance (or if I'm really unlucky, a wait-list).  I've also read on several forums and blogs that the response usually arrives very soon after the interview.  When I asked the interviewer at Sloan, he advised that a response could be within 2 weeks.

So now, while I bite my nails, I wait to find out what's happening...
