I generally take rejections well. But i spent 3 years in getting my GMAT and then GRE scores. I got rejected by 4/6 schools. One of the other two being GSB, so there is not a lot of hope. Keeping aside the shit loads of my savings that I spent on GMAT and a consultant, feeling like I wasted 3 years of my life on this with no tangible output. Anybody else in the same boat? People who have swam through this in the past, how do you deal with the hit this takes on your confidence? Need help!
