Pretty sure I'll be heading to Fuqua -- love to connect with anyone else going down there as well -- and I figured we'd start this as the official 'name where you're going' thread :P

^^^ this is gold!
i was always thinking about
i was always thinking about moving from st to portfolio management or risk management (what i trade has unusually uncertain future...) but you plan to transition to consulting. why is consulting somehow attractive to you now? =)
i interviewed at columbia
i interviewed at columbia tuck ding at MIT nyu and chicago in at cornell texas duke and hopefully yale :P i had thought of moving to port management myself but have been looking more and more at product/account management for a big IM firm since getting a buy side ER job is nigh impossble even if youre at wharton/chicago... those roles are hybrid port management and client facing sales type roles and im good with people and the like... but consulting has more collegiate atmosphere, decently fast paced and dynamic (vs industry), good exit ops if i decide that (vs trading's limited exit ops :P grass is always greener?) and im very good with people as i said... but also playing to my school's strengths!

congrats dude! most of my
congrats dude!
most of my time on this site is spent arguing about hamburgers, southern rap, or cee-lo greene... your posts on mba admissions are one of the few things WSO-related that have actually been adding value to my life recently. i'll be strongly targeting both johnson and fuqua when i apply next year, so i'm both very jealous and very excited that you got in.
