*Trivia Tuesday*

facts about admissions or essays or even myth busters or anything as such

We can also mix it up by talking about other schools and not just Fuqua

*Wellness Sunday/weekend*

This entire process/cycle can be emotionally draining for many and most of us , we can share meditation tips or how your support system is guiding you in tough times and anything related to mediation to mental health, after all we can only build a great community by having each others back
Definitely, love this!

Could you please send the list?
Hey here you go 😇

I used what I call the 6-bucket framework, a structure to help you balance depth, levity, and storytelling:
1. Memorable experiences - things that make the reader
pause and say, "Wait, what?"
2. Personal struggles - not for drama, but for insight into
who you are underneath it all.
3. Helping others - Fuqua values Decency Quotient (DQ)
- your instinct to support others matters.
4. Funny or quirky stuff - those "you had to be there" stories that make you human.
5. Influential people or relationships - who helped shape
your worldview.
6. Habits, obsessions, or pet peeves - insisting on eating Maggi with a fork and a spoon because "that's how it tastes best."

The golden rule?
Every item should be memorable, funny, helpful, or vulnerable. Ideally, more than one.

All the best!

I’d love to ask the reapplicants in the group a few questions and am eager to learn from your experiences.

Looking back, what do you think you would have done differently during your previous application?
