That's right, kids. My
Clear Admit "Best of Blogging" vote is for sale. I accept cash, check and barter.
*Chortle* *Titter* Hardy har har! Heh heh. Ahem. I'll be here all night, folks!
Ok, seriously -- I did complete and turn in my ballot yesterday. The competition was THICK. Though several bloggers have recently posted insightful application tips and tactics post-acceptance, there was a special place in my heart for those bloggers that gave a relatively candid play-by-play throughout the admissions process. Naturally, no blogger (myself included) revealed their entire hand of cards prior to final admissions decisions, but several of you were quite forthcoming and honest about yourselves in your pre-acceptance (or pre-denial) blog posts -- an approach that I consider quite admirable.
Finally, I do have one update to share about myself in my ongoing quest for MBA admission. I have enrolled in a Statistics class. I have a slightly lower quant score on my GMAT (73%), a respectable but not brag-worthy GPA (3.22), so a quant class or two on my transcript won't hurt me as I head into this fall's admissions process.
Regarding stats, I took one engineering stats course in college, one class on risk in nuclear systems (just stats using nuclear situations), and I've done some stats here at work...and when I say "I" have done stats at work, I mean Excel does it for me. :-P
But even with all that, I hate stats. I suck at it. Goizueta is making me take an accounting course, but I think it probably wouldn't hurt for me to take a stats class over the summer, too.
Stats and geometry -- I always sucked at those.
