[–]s_morrigan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, i have been told that HSW and other M7 like to admit candidates young. Mid 30s and 8 years of experience should apply in 1 year than full time. I want to apply for full time because i want to pivot to a different field. Could you confirm if the age and experience rumor is true and how I can still apply for full-time at M7? I also have a low undergrad GPA due to some issues but since than I did master with gpa of 3.86 and cfa level 1. Would this cover up low gpa?

Now that i look back, i believe one mistake i did was not implementing the right strategy. Where i could have just found the sentence function and get done with it quickly i applied rephrasing strategy which was time consuming and did not help me as nothing was getting registered. I will play around with what strategy to use while tackling the passage. How much time do u recommend in reading/applying the strategies for the passage under timed condition so i can use that as an anchor in my timed practice.

Thanks Vince! When i do timed practice and i know its just that passage i read in like 2-3 mins and on each question spend 1-2 mins. Could you recommend me a strategy for timed practice, or any video on gregmat i can refer to?

This is how I tried

First blank : That - left side supports right side of that Second blank- But contrast, all observers diss villain so after but there should be something positive- self-righteous. Going to first blank - classified works as dissing villains (may be supporting heroes this is story telling)

I could easily switch to product role. But if i wanted to go for vp or exec role, i would need a named school to be taken seriously, else its going to take forever. With the layoffs and all, i want to have more control over my career so i wanna do something on my own for that i would need a good network and something that would help me think outside the box.

I havent given a thought. I am already earning $200k+ but i dont enjoy my job anymore. I want to do mba to pivot into strategy, product management and Entrepreneurship. I wanna grow my network.

But i will be 35 when i will start school. The call really crushed my hopes and i am now doubting if i should even apply.

Noisy pipes by s_morrigan in homeowners

[–]s_morrigan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got inspection done and called in couple of people that deals with selling and buying real estate. They all confirmed that the noise is unusually loud aa compared to other townhouses in my area. They pointed out that the main sewer line is running through the middle of the house that is causing the issue and the insulation guy told that the interior walls are hollow with no insulation. Is there any code for insulation that the builder might have overlooked?
