Wrapping up Mod 2

A lot has been happening since the last blog. I’ve been able to take care of the whole recruitment thing. I ended up with a couple of offers and decided to go with the investment bank that made an offer for the exact group and city I was interested in. I am very excited about it as it provides the right balance I was looking for between my personal and career aspirations. Finally we can put an end to that as a subject of discussion.

I hate to admit this but I’ve mentally checked out for the year. The good news is that I should be pretty much done with all my classes by next week. It’s up to me to quickly work on my take home exams and get out of town for somewhere warm or procrastinate until the last minute and leave town on the 22nd. Many of my classmates are already making plans to leave town next week with many traveling abroad. I’ll keep my overseas trips till Spring Break and post graduation. I will also not see some of them again until graduation since they’ll be on exchange to other countries. People often ask me if I’ll go on exchange and my response is “This entire US experience is my exchange”.

We had a great program for some prospective applicants (IKF) last week and it was awesome. We kicked off with a social event for them at the home of the admissions director. The prospects also got to see us in our natural habitat. The event was wrapped up with a party at a club. It sure rocked. There’ll be the annual Casino Night this weekend. Without a doubt, I have now started really enjoying business school. Second year rocks!
