Hello folks,
Does anybody know whether UCLA has the same essay qns every year or does it change alot? I am planning for 2009 and was wondering whether it makes sense to start essay using 2008 ones. Thanks in advance.

2008 was the same at 2007, I believe. Not sure on 2009 essays will certainly help. I did the UCLA app first and it certainly helped with all the others. It was more broad than Haas, for sure.

I know this is random, but are you Soomodh from the Manhattan GMAT recorded class? I mean, did you take a MGMAT online class?

Well I wasn't exactly in your class. There was one set of classes that were recorded, and that set is available for any MGMAT customers to watch (I think it's kind of like their "master set" of classes). So I watched all 9 sessions of your class, but wasn't actually in it - I just watched it this last spring. While I was watching the recordings, I'd always wonder how the people in the class ended up doing on the GMAT. Did it turn out alright for you?

Things have gone fairly well for me too. I just submitted an application to the HBS 2+2 program, and I'm getting a couple of other applications ready. Let's hope for the best. Good luck.
