School Selection
I started working on the essays, but somehow lost the momentum a few days back. Still struggling to get it back, been busy with so many things that unable to make time for this.
I made a huge mistake last yr, I dint have a concrete lists of schools till the fag end. My school list was under review and changing as late as mid dec; this when the deadlines were from 4-Jan to 15-Jan! So, this time around, the list is gonna be finalised much earlier. There are some 10 schools that interest me. Need to reduce this to 8 (or mebbe lesser). I am thinking I will app to 5/6 schools in R1 and 3/2 in R2.
I kinda have my R1 list complete, but will post it only when its not just "kinda complete" but complete complete :) But before I can think of finalising the schools, I need to take a call on something else (will blog upon it soon). Only once I decide upon that will I be able to decide which schools are in and which are out.
Based on the feedback recd from Duke, I have signed up for a quant course at mbamath.com. From what I've seen, it seems good!

I know all about losing momentum w/ the essays... I've had that same problem recently. I will look forward to seeing your complete R1 list... I'm having problems finalizing mine. BTW - I have all 10 seasons of Friends, and it's such a great investment. :)

Hi icarus, mbamath.com offers only one course, atleast for prospective students. So course selection was not really a problem.
As for how much of a help it would be, frankly, being in India, do we have a choice? I asked the Duke lady if this was ok, and she its fine with them. This was the only website specifically tailored to the mba community.
Note for non-indians: We dont have the concept of community colleges in India. So except for online courses, there's no other recourse.
