Katahdin: 529s
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2006/07/529s.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Thursday, July 20, 2006. The wsj has printed articles about 529s, and some folks mentioned them on the Columbia admits yahoo board. I think that these plans are great for MBA students, and I'm using the DC plan, at least for a few weeks. In effect, $3,000 is out of my hands for a few weeks, and then I get it back. But because of the 529, I lower my DC taxable income. One key is that I have to live in the District when I make 529 contribution...

Katahdin: Admitted to Columbia!!!!
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2005/12/admitted-to-columbia.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Thursday, December 15, 2005. How ironic that I write a long-winded, whiny post about waiting, and the next day I get an admit. Heck, the admit was early in the morning (8:45am), fewer than 12 hours after I wrote. I am overjoyed, and perhaps a mite tipsy. I spent the day at work displaying no emotion and emailing furiously. Got home and did a little dance, and made a little noise. What a great day. What an awesome year! Thank you in advance!

Katahdin: Columbia Open House - Day 1
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2006/04/columbia-open-house-day-1.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Friday, April 14, 2006. Columbia Open House - Day 1. Has already written about her experiences at Open House, but I wanted to throw in my two cents. Next up we divided into the clusters listed on our nametags-which won’t be our clusters in August-and did some icebreaker activities. I really enjoyed this, probably because a) I’m a dork, and b) I may still have been drunk from the previous night. In business school,. The happy hour really seem...

Katahdin: It has become a waiting game
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2005/12/it-has-become-waiting-game.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Wednesday, December 14, 2005. It has become a waiting game. So what can I make of all of this? I have a good understanding of why I've been waiting, but not of how long I might wait. Of the two people in my situation who have gotten dings, the first was complete for 24 days, the other for 22. I have been complete for 22 days, which would indicate,. On average, a. The ball is in their court. Posted by Katahdin @ Wednesday, December 14, 2005.

Katahdin: Playing with the To-Do list
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2006/01/playing-with-to-do-list.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Tuesday, January 17, 2006. Playing with the To-Do list. After a decidedly pedestrian evening watching NOVA, I took my usual tour of Columbia sites. Nothing too interesting on the yahoo board, except some info on the to-do list. So I went there, spent a few minutes figuring out how to bring some of the tasks back, as I seem to have a stupid default view. Anyway, I put together my Kroll info ($83!

Katahdin: List o' Tasks
http://katahdinc.blogspot.com/2006/06/list-o-tasks.html
Getting Ready for Columbia Business School, Running, et cetera. Monday, June 26, 2006. For the past two months I have been trying to keep myself busy making task lists for school, and then knocking things off. This is the only way I can keep myself from having carefree days, and nerve-wracking nights as I stare at the ceiling remembering all of the things that I have to do. Earned platinum traveler status on the nyc-dc chinatown bus. Taken care of my loans: Access Group, floating. Reserved a moving truck.

My foray into the coveted MBA land. Tuesday, September 19, 2006. So it starts and mid terms are already here.

Mid terms are scheduled for this week so we will come to know if I really managed my time well or was it just a mirage :). Posted by MGalBlue at 8:19 AM. Oregon, United States.

My foray into the coveted MBA land. Sunday, March 26, 2006. Got partial tuition waiver at Ross. $20,000 per annum. Considering that I am an international student, and that too an Indian with technology backgnd this is really kick ass. Didn't expect to get this extra help :) Not bad, huh. Posted by MGalBlue at 10:34 PM. Friday, March 17, 2006. A) Only 1/3 of the top exec at S&P 500 are MBA. B) And 2/3 of these guys got executive MBA. Posted by MGalBlue at 8:36 PM.
