The War's about to begin..

And you should be ready, atleast mentally prepared. Over the past 2 weeks, almost all business schools have released their essays. It's like the enemy is all ready with its infantry, air force and navy units to overwhelm you and then kill you with the onslaught of essays(and other application requirements, not forgetting the hefty application fee). But for those of you who will manage to thwart away the attack, the crown (read bschool admit) is yours.

The best 3 places to keep track of bschool announcements are :
Dave's blog (http://daveformba.blogspot.com)
The ClearAdmit blog (http://www.clearadmit.com/blog.html)
Linda Abraham's website (http://www.accepted.com)

ClearAdmit and Linda also offer essay insights, but I somehow think that Dave's blog is the first one to announce the essays, probably because he has smartly automated the whole process of finding out when and what changes on any bschool website.

As this war begins, I wish all my fellow applicants good luck. I hope we all survive!

[Also, the person I mentioned in my previous blog entry has officially made the announcement, though not quite loud enough. Check out the blog here, and notice the change on the right side bar. And no, I am not stalking him/her :-) ]
