Ok.. I have decided to shift this blog's theme from 'anything under the sun' to 'my days at Georgetown'. For the start, I will try to pen down my day-to-day (or at least weekly) happenings.

Anyway, coming to the point, here is what has happened since beginning July(from what I remember):
- Even long before official admission we were supposed to complete MBAmath.com assignments. It was cool and gave a glimpse of what was to be expected out of the coursework. Spent all in all almost 20 hours on this.
- Arrived Phily on Aug04; went to Edison, NJ for two days. For those who don't know anything about Indian community in the US, this place is like mini Gujrat.
- Came to DC, started furnishing the apartment etc.. of course, life was never more miserable than setting up a new home without a car or a cell phone (and worse of all, no income)....
- Completed opening orientation and mandatory residency BEFORE the official start of the class - Aug25. Was fun and TOO MUCH learning.
- Understood the ONLY reason to come to an MBA school - to get a job, rest is BS.
- Understood that getting a job in the US is a pain in the butt. You gotta make connections / networking / pitching / informationals .... gosh, I had never used these types of words in my previous life....
- Aug25: beginning of the classes - 9 classes; Mon-Thur of 1.5 hrs each... sounds easy, right. NO. Absolute NO.
Core classes are: Microeconomics (E-con), Statistics (Stats), Organizational Behavior (OB), Management communication, Financial Accounting.
- Today was yet another torturous day... had speaker panel from several big companies plus interaction with 2nd years who just completed their internship from these companies. wonder how they get it in the first place.... the worst part is that you have to be in business formal to attend these....

Ciao for now.
