Hurdles

It’s been almost a month since I posted last so I thought I’ll get a quick update in. My work has been very challenging and rather stressful. I have always enjoyed taking up challenges and responsibilities but them coinciding with peak MBA application season is proving a handful. For a person who's never home on a weekend, a post on Saturday midnight should just about prove that. Come to think of it, this is actually a depressing thought :(

Anyways, I managed to get in my Tuck application but missed HBS as I felt it was not ready. HBS is now postponed to round 2 in January.

To make my life more miserable, I am taking up the challenge of submitting both Tepper and Duke reapplications by Nov 1st and 5th respectively. Duke essay questions have changed while I am required to re-write all my Tepper essays (as per feedback by admission director). With only first drafts of 2 Duke Essays and half of the third ready, my situation is dreadful. I still entertain hopes of getting both applications to allow me to focus on Darden application due next.

Wish me luck cos I am going to need it!
