Halfway.
You ask Jesus into your heart as your Lord and Saviour. But you don't wash away your sins with the baptism. Jesus' blood does that the minute you receive salvation.
Baptism to me (and people of my belief) is just an outward symbol to the world that we've put to death the old man and arise a new creature.
