This whole application process has led to a lot of introspection and soul-searching for a lot of us (I think). It has really put everything I have done with my life in perspective. And I guess that perspective is kind of framed like, "Are you a worthy person? Have you made the most of opportunities available to you? Or did you squander them?" For instance, I definitely feel like I should have gotten more out of my undergrad, but I never really thought too much about it until I started gearing up for b-school.
If you could travel back to your freshman year of college and explain to your 18-year old self what you know now, what three pieces of advice would you give? What would be your three recommendations?
Here are mine:
1. Study harder, you need to get at least a 3.5, and while you're at it get involved with some clubs and get a leadership position.
2. When you graduate, get involved in community service. It will make you a better person and it will help you w/ b-school apps.
3. When you meet a girl named Nicole your junior year, avoid her at all costs.
I think if I had those three little gems my freshman year, I would be better positioned for b-school and better positioned in general.

I definitely agree with #1. I did not value grades all that much in Ugrad. Looking back, if I was aware I would be applying for B-school, I would have studied harder and gotten better grades. However, thankfully, adcoms realize this maturing process and weight a lot less on GPA compared to other professional graduate programs. #2, did not have time to get involved and looking back probably would not have been able to make it, however post degree, I agree. Not just for B-school apps but as you mention personal growth. The reward one experiences is great. #3, if anyone can not agree with this I would love to meet them. Except my list has about 4 more females than yours
, guess I just was more unlucky than you!

Ok, this is fun. I would say,
1. Take that stats class. I know you will keep pulling it out of your schedule to take foreign language classes, but you need to fit it in there.
2. Do more Spanish classes! The Russian major is fine; you can keep that. But take more Spanish. You'll need it. The Russian, not so much.
3. Never mind, boys. This one isn't fit for the locker room.
