Can I take you up on the offer as well? Dinged at W. In at Booth but considering reapplying next year

You should definitely figure out your goals to at least some specificity. 2 maybe 3 options are fine, but more than that, you’ll have trouble getting the most out of your experience. Current 2Y at Booth — feel free to DM

Rejected by HBS and GSB post interview... feeling pretty low. Was hoping I'd get one after interviewing. Not sure what I could have done differently. 750 GMAT, >3.8 GPA from top 10 UG, multiple promotions, strong recs, well-known employer. The process feels so random... I know there are so many qualified candidates and so few spots but I wish they had seen it in me.
