Last night I attended a MBA forum with my friend to get some info on different business schools, which GMAT prep courses to take, and the application process. I'm really glad I took the time to check the forum out. I haven't really done much research on MBA programs but I thought it was going to be same as choosing undergraduate school...you aim for the best school that you can get into and nothing else matters. Well at least that was the mindset among the top students at my high school (which included me ). I don't know if it was luck or something but my friend and I met this awesome alumni from Georgetown. She gave us some really good insight about business school life and what we should be looking for in addition to rankings.

There was also a discussion panel where alumnae from different schools were talking about their experiences and why they decided to apply for an MBA. In the middle of the discussion, there was a woman in the audience that started to run around the room. She had a very confused and frightened expression on her face. At first I thought she was choking because she was holding onto her throat. Then I thought she was going to have a seizure because the last time I saw someone run around like her was while I was in college and it was this girl that knew she was going to have a seizure. Later I heard the woman was a diabetic and her blood sugar level dropped too low...that's why she was running around confused.

I don't know if I'm over doing the whole networking thing, but I emailed almost everyone that I got a business card from. I just don't want these admissions people and alumnae to forget that there is a Rennie out there and to look keep an out for my application.

I'm tired. Good night.

There's no such thing as too much networking. Learn as much as possible to make an informed decision on where you want to go.

Good for you! I used to think rank is very important, but now i think the tuition and timing are more important! My boss tells me how, starting last Fall, all her husband's MBA school friends lost their jobs. They just graduated 2 yrs ago! i don't know what i could do if i had 200K in debt and no job. ~_~" i guess the best bet is to not go into finance!!

sounds interesting... it's great to get good help / insight =)

but the incident about the lady was kinda scary... my grandma is a diabetic and when her sugar level was too low, we make her drink apple juice... =)

Super straight forward and blunt. I'm the friend that tells you that you look like sh*t at the end of a long day at work (and then I help you fix your hair). I can be pretty intimidating, but everyone around me knows that I'm one of the nicest people they'll ever meet. I can talk to anyone, anywhere, on just about anything that comes to my mind at the moment. I'm a Cancer so I can get along with practically anyone. At this moment in life, I can say that the smartest decision I ever made was to study abroad in Hong Kong, where all I did was shop, eat, party, and travel for a year (but don't tell my parents that). I'm super addicted to girly books (I love Sophie Kinsella) and was recently tricked into reading my first romance novel(it's like porn on books). I truly believe that I am destined to be a photographer, food critic, or an event planner, but somehow landed in banking and finance. I'm an impulsive shopper (last year I bought a PSP and now it's just sitting on my book shelf). I have a passion for food and I love trying new restaurants. I once told a friend "if we weren't working together we would never be friends because you can't eat garlic." My friends appreciate food. For some odd reason (I still haven't figured out what) I have the shortest attention span when it comes to the guys I date. I can be staring at my cell phone when it rings, but I'll never pick it up. I'm addicted to buying Chinese DVDs. I'm allergic to lychee, but I eat it anyways. I can't stand pretentious people, I rather respect you for your b*tchy a**hole selves. I learned how to read and speak Mandarin by watching tv. I once told a Congressmen to get off my seat at a conference in capitol hill. I'm not on facebook.

That's all. I think.

Update 8/17/2007...just kidding...I'm on facebook now.
