It's early compared to when last year's thread was started but I received my first admission today so I figured I'd get this going. I had all my applications in by mid November, and got a call from UT Austin today offering me admission even though one of my recommendations has not been turned in yet. Exciting, although I still am not completely sold on grad school--I have a few site interviews over winter break and am still considering going the job route. I am looking forward to visiting schools in the spring though, and will make my decision for my future after I done a few of those and met some grad students at these places.
What's everyone else's situation?
