The offer e-mail came a friday afternoon, 7pm in Buenos Aires. I saw it at midnight, took a quick look at the list and felt I had a decision to make: how much will I dedicate to searching info on classes and professors before sending my list of preference? I had already lost 5 hours!
I was tired and couldn't do much then. So I fell asleep (a bit worried I confess). When I got up early the next morning, I had an e-mail from my husband with a recommendation of two well known professors he'd been reading about. Lucky me he always sleeps later than me, is supportive, a great researcher and helped me with something to start from!
It was 8am in the morning and I had to be at a wedding at 10am. I had to make it as simple as possible.
Liked the title then read the courses descriptions. Took a look to previous quarters evaluations. Thought of what I was really interested in. Selected 7 classes. Checked the hours were not overlapping. Hesitated a bit about the preference order and what if... clock was running... AND SENT.
Someone had told me that applying quickly was important. He had taken a couple of days to research and got no seat on the classes he wanted. It was great I could talk to him before.
These are the top 4 classes I chose. These are the classes I'm taking:
- Product Management for Technology Companies: An Entrepreneurial Perspective with Prof. Sawhney
- Marketing-Led Innovation with Prof. Razeghi
- Management Communications with Prof. Van Camp
- Advanced Topics in Marketing with Prof. Calder
