Updates

An update was long due from my side :

1. I submitted my deposit money for Cornell Johnson class of 2009 last week :-) Now I can either think that I am $1500 poorer or that I'll have to take loans worth "Tution fee - $1500". I prefer to think the later. Leaving $50, the rest $1450 will be credited towards the tution fee.

2. I have been waitlisted at Kellogg SOM as well. I don't know how to take this news. I already had one waitlist - Chicago GSB - in my kitty !! I'd prefer attending Chicago GSB than Kellogg, when I get into both the schools.

3. I am not able to decide when to leave the job! I would prefer to work until May/June atleast :) What do you guys planning??

I have already quit my job! :) I figure I will never have the luxury of this much "free" time again, and I will have time to work for the rest of my life after I get out of b-school. I plan to travel different countries, visit old friends, and train for a marathon for the next 7 months :)

I WANT to have quit my job one month ago
I CANNOT quit my job before end of May,
for one simple reason "$$$"

:-(. So i guess we'll give each other company, working till May/June...

Assuming I get into a b-school for Fall 2007 entry, I'd like to resign as soon as I hear from a school so I can concentrate on CFA stuff in June and all other administrative matters. =)

Iday said...

I want to work till July as well :) The money plays a crucial role, as Juggler has mentioned.

But i dont think i can live 6 months without working either. The much smaller one week break left me bored by the 4th day ;)

Yeah, I agree with both Juggler and Iday, the money plays a crucial role!! But I would leave my job one month before flying to the US in order to spend some quality time with my family. I live in a different city than my family.

So do I live in a different city but then too like Juggler and Iday, I think i will work till June end july beginning for the same money reason !

Nice to hear that you put in your deposit.

i think I am going to stand out here, as far as my reasons for quitting late are concerned. I can't be sure if I will be going for MBA unless i get my Visa. So i am going to give notice, after my Visa interview. which means I can quit mid July, and will hardly have 15-20 days b4 I scramble to shop,fly and look for housing :(

@sudha:
u miss the point :)
i'll have to be in chicago by mid August and i plan to quit by mid July. I'll have the same 30 days or less for everything :)

BTW - i thought we look for housing from here!!! That's how it works with GSB.
