I know it may be a little early in the game, but has anyone else started preparing their application? This means visiting the school, talking to CBS ambassadors, drafting the essay, etc. And good luck everyone!

I'll be there! quote="xlick"]Couldn't have said it better Audrey : ). Is anyone else going to the Columbia "Why MBA?" Panel tomorrow?

Enjoy guys. I'm not in NY otherwise I would swing by. Please share any interesting insights afterwards.

I submitted an application for the jterm more than a week ago and it still hasnt gone under review yet. If the status continues to be "submitted" and hasnt gone under review, how long should I wait before I contact them?

The event had a huge turn out as expected. The panel shared interesting info about the entrepreneurship at cbs, executives in residence, career transitions and also the major advantage of being in NY. Though nothing which can't be found on the website or through blogs of current students. A friend mentioned that the event should've been called Why Columbia MBA instead, but that's not surprising. I expected it to pitch CBS and not just any MBA degree of course! Enjoy guys. I'm not in NY otherwise I would swing by. Please share any interesting insights afterwards.

Thanks for sharing praz! Did you meet many people who had submitted already?

I met xlick I met many who were looking at R2, xlick did you meet anyone else who submitted already?

Couple basic Q's regarding the Employment section: 1) In the Duties/Responsibilities box, should I write something different than what I've included on my resume? I imagine most people already summarize this exact information on their resumes, no? Is the adcom looking for something else? 2) I've worked at the same employer since graduation and have gotten two promotions. Should I create three listings with mostly the same information (title, salary and responsibilities change slightly over time) or one listing that summarizes it all? Thanks in advance, Roger
