I’ve been finding it really difficult to maintain this blog. Not that there’s nothing happening in my MBA journey - on the contrary, there’s too much on right now…
- Application for the LBS-HSBC loan: its just too much paperwork!
- Planning the UK student visa (which can’t happen till the loan does…)
- My last few days at my job – I think I’m working more than I did in the last 6 months
- Agonizing over M’s job & visa status
- …and then there’s the IPL
So much as I hate to write this, I think the time’s come for me to move on, from this blog – especially since I started feeling I really didnt have much value to add. Plus its been 365 days (a whole year!!!) since I started this blog, and its better to stop than keep posting inane, mundane, arcane stuff that nobody (including me) is bothered about. What I do promise, however, is to:
- Filter, sort & classify my posts, just in case it helps any future applicants
- Blog through my LBS journey [currently WIP : oopsatlbs.wordpress.com]
So, all the best to all ye comrades moving on to schools across the world! And to all the applicants in their journey towards the school of their choice! Adieu…
I’ll miss this blog, but I guess I’ll have to make do with your new one!
Wharton hasn’t sent the loan paperwork yet, so I have a bit of a break before that whole mess. Can’t wait!
Wishing you the best… we’ll keep tabs on you via the new blog.
[...] bid farewell to the applicant blogging world this week, promising to reconnect as a student blogger at London Business School this fall. On the other hand, Mike was just getting ready for another go-around, eyeing Harvard’s [...]
All the best with LBS, and look forward to seeing you on the new blog.
All the best at LBS! Look forward to your new blog
Hi, my name is Josh, and I’m a recent Stanford GSB graduate. I’d like to offer your readers some helpful information. I recently surveyed my classmates, friends and colleagues, and asked them to discuss their application strategies, as well as advice for entering MBA students, for Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, and Kellogg. I compiled the responses into a FREE 21-page report available at http://www.ExpertCollective.com. Stanford MBA applicants tell me that the information is really helpful in filling-out their essays with detailed and specific information, while the entering first-years appreciate the advice on how to make best use of the 2 years at business school. I’d love to have you review the full version of the report (80+ pages) if you think you’re readers might be interested. Please send me an email at josh@expertcollective if you’d like me to email you a copy to review for your blog.
Best wishes for your success!

Oops,
I used to follow your blog ‘Oops! I plan to do it again…’ when I was applying to B Schools last yr. But, retired from visiting the virtual world after I was dinged everywhere…I am planning to apply to LBS this yr. So, I frantically googled again for your blog to see if you have any insights to the program.. alas, none!
If you are still attending LBS, I’d like to get in touch with you to learn more about the program. Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance.

I don’t know how you managed to work on your MBA and maintain a blog all at once. Good luck with class!
Качество друзей тоже надо учитывать. Дональд Трамп, например, на двадцатку потянет.
И опять об этом. Если поисковики научатся понимать смысл, то блогерам придется поизголяться, чтобы быть читаемыми и не похожими на других.
Кругом война, смерть, глупость, а вы тут… сами знаете, чем занимаетесь.
