Good luck...their essays have been pretty steady for the last few years so you should be alright.

On a good note, the administration has heard the complaints about admissions loud and clear and is planning to revamp some stuff. No word on what that is...whether they change anything big like interview policy or of it its more along the lines of events and how responsive the staff is expected to be.

Count me in! Visited in the spring and planning on applying for R1. The strong marketing program as well as name brand are big draws for me. A little worried about the weather but I think I can deal.

Copy and paste summary of myself from other threads: Took the GMAT in December and got a 740 although I would have preferred a higher quant score than my 47. I was pleased that my overall got me in range of the schools I'm focused on though. Undergrad at a large state school with a well regarded electrical engineering program. I do pretty hardcore engineering work now but would like to move out of that. I'm worried about my undergrad GPA of 3.1 although I did have a better last 2 years. My gpa included D's in two classes as well so I may have to write an alternate essay to explain that.

I wouldn't worry about a 3.1 in engineering and the 740 GMAT is plenty fine. Probably will want to address the two Ds, but you probably won't have to write a full on essay about it (unless you want to). A few paragraphs to explain the situation is probably good.
