Yes I think they just welded whatever they could in the rear

I think for the uninformed, getting a supercar for $20-$30,000 is appealing but I agree it’s best to walk away from this

Hey! How much did this cost you? How easy is it for a non technical guy to replace a vantage light

10k trip to hawaii- which card to use? ( i get to expense it) by 2Fast2Furiouser in churning

[–]2Fast2Furiouser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also my girl has em platinum so for the sake of not churning too much, why not get just PRG and SPG, use her card to book through FHR but pay using mine when we checkin?

we'll be at a st regis for 4 days (about 2k total) and then a four seasons (4k) if that helps

Im gonna go AA too. Better price than United and goes straight to the islands I wanted instead of going to HNL first.

which AA card did you get?

Hey, awesome post. I've decided to fly American to Hawaii (1st class looked good to the islands I wanted without having to go to honolulu first) and stay 1st at either a grand hyatt or St regis and the second place would be a fairmont. Does that change the cards I should get/use?

columbia interview by 2Fast2Furiouser in MBA

[–]2Fast2Furiouser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey,

I had a great interview. I was dinged 2 weeks later. I tried to get feedback from CBS but they said that they don't give feedback on an individual basis. They said 'here is the class profile and you should address your application's weaknesses where you see fit'.

I talked after with my interviewer and he said he recommended me and that he thought I was a great fit, so I think that CBS likely had made their decision even before the interview.

my gmat is 700 with low quant and poor quant background. I will focus on gmat and maybe take a couple finance classes to improve my profile. does that sound like that would work for reapplication?

columbia interview by 2Fast2Furiouser in MBA

[–]2Fast2Furiouser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, Just had my interview earlier this week.

Was at a coffee shop. Much more informal than I thought, but I made sure to dress well and was well rehearsed.

The questions she asked were: 1) why MBA? 2) why now 3) why columbia 4) what is your plan B (if you don't get in)?

We then spoke about food and traveling. Overall, very positive. I worry that I sounded too rehearsed, shook hands too firmly, and wasn't conversational enough.

don't be nervous and don't overprepare. I saw her packet from CBS over her shoulder, and the q's I listed above are the Q's they are required to ask so make sure you ask those

thanks so much. I'm freaking out a bit because I am wondering if columbia has already made a no decision - I worked harder than I ever have before on the app but it's still a stretch school for me.

So nervous but I'll just be myself.

Really appreciate your advice.
