Good luck to all three of you! How long does the process usually take before you hear back?
They gave us a date at the end of the application, but I don't remember what it is. It's about 4 weeks and then first round picks will hear, then another 2-3 weeks for second round picks. The entire process is over by mid-November because the new panelists travel to WDW for training usually the first week of December, they start answering questions as active members of the Moms Panel in January.
The web-form tells you that if you're not picked you won't hear anything, but I've always gotten a mass "Thanks But No" email. I'll be sure to update the thread when I get mine. LOL!
