I think I'm applying.. either R1 or R2. I wouldn't be opposed to applying EA either, if I can get my act together in time.
aaudetat - thanks for your posts on this forum. I have a couple of questions....
1. Age / WE - I think Duke has an older WE than some other schools. I have 2 years experience right now and should have 3 years at matriculation - will that hurt me for admissions - I get the sense that Duke isn't as young-applicant-friendly... is that just my perception?. Even if I do get in, will recruiting be more difficult because I'll be competing against more experienced classmates at Duke? Do a lot of companies have an experience cut-off when they recruit on campus?
2. Duke Weekend for Women - I applied last year and didn't get in. I know the AdCom say that the decision isn't related to MBA admissions at all... but how can it not be? I won't let that stop me from applying but it's a little discouraging. Anyone else here in the same boat?
3. How is marketing at Duke? What do your marketing classmates think of the program and the recruiters?
4. Does applying EA mean no scholarship money?
I'm trying to make it out to Durham for a trip as early in October as possible... might be hard given work, but I really want to visit before I apply. Who's planning a visit in the fall?
And thanks in advance to aaudetat and anyone else who responds!
