Well guys,

I have told you guys about my interview invite a week back, but just now got time to write about it. I scheduled it with an alumni in the Ohio area on Sunday (I dont have any days left to take a day off and visit Johnson). But as such the experience was good. It lasted for like 40 mins and had a lot of in depth questions which I was not asked in the other schools I have interviewed with. But as Sulham said, know your stuff and you'll breeze through it.

Now just keeping my fingers crossed for the final results.

I would send as an attachment in an email and ask the school to confirm receipt. (ps - don't send it as a .docx file if you are using Office 2007, save it in the old format.)

R2 App submitted 2:20 pm PST on 11/06.

I am going to take a break for the next couple of weeks and do absolutely nothing related to applications before I start work in earnest on my Wharton and UCLA apps.

I just checked my acct to see what I did. I sent as a word attachment and asked them to let me know if they needed another format. The word attachment was fine, and they confirmed receipt without me asking them to.

So I get an email from Randall Sawyer and Cornell. WOO HOO !!!!!!!!

I check it, it's a link to read Cornell's student blogs. Now is not the time for such emails, sir.

I got that too. For a second, I thought he singled me out and I was going to reply by thanking him, but then I see the sender is [email protected].

How about you admit me instead?

Probably a silly question... but for the Park Fellowship essays, since the consensus is to send it as a word document, are you including a title or anything or just the essay on it's own.

I haven't even started, but I think I will forgo the title because the question is pretty straightforward. I think a title is to spark interest and/or clarify something indirect. If at all, the title of the essay should be same for all of us -- a restatement of the question.

That's my thought; but like I've been saying, what the heck do I know?
