"Kellogg Photosynthesis" - Another great Kellogg video!

Well, this year's videos were a total success. This is another video that a classmate made for the admitted students that came to DAK (Day At Kellogg).

Honestly, it is great to see all the teamwork and creativity that is going on here at Kellogg, and not to mention the amazing job opportunities and learning experiences!

Former president of Colombia at Kellogg!

Needless to say, the event was outstanding. Having former presidents is definitely a big deal. You can sense so much wisdom and leadership...

But get the full debriefs at Orlando´s blog and Andre´s blog (the latter in portuguese!).
Nothing else to add.

Kellogg Lip Dub!!

The Kellogg Lip Dub was a great success!! We had a lot of fun making it! A team of about 80 people worked and acted to create this fun but very well done video!



Just in case you don't know what a Lip Dub is, it is a video that you film only in one take! So it requires A LOT of coordination.

Of course I did participate, and it was another opportunity for meeting awesome Kellogg Students that I haven't met before!

I hope you enjoyed it!

Beth Flye leaving Kellogg

And to start with the news, here is one that actually makes me kind of sad. I talked to Beth a couple of times and she is awesome. I frequently saw her buying coffee.

I wish her the best!

And for Kellogg, I am confident Beth will be covered by someone as awesome as Beth, because Kellogg is a great school! The current admissions team is also very experienced and wonderful, so it wouldn't surprise me if somebody from inside the team takes her place.

I'm back!

Well, after a long time, I've decided to come back.

Long story short, I decided to come to Kellogg based on fit! It was a tough choice, but definitely the correct one for me. I am having a wonderful time here! I also have a job for the summer (so no more networking nor interviews!)

I must say that all the good things people say about Kellogg, are actually true. I hope to write about the many examples that show these things.

Keep tuned!

Coincidence??

Well... for the last few days I have been thinking about the two schools that admitted me: Kellogg and Chicago Booth.

When I thought about Chicago Booth, I recalled this post of mine: the MBA vs Cars comparison, and guess what I have written?! That I felt very identified with the Volvo, the Chicago Booth car!! Do you think is it just a mere coincidence??

MBAJourney 2 - MBA Adcoms 2

It's even.
I started with an overwhelming 2 - 0 in my favor, but last Friday, in a lapsus of 3 hours, it was a draw. I received 2 dings: Wharton and MIT!
(By the way, I couldn´t post because I had very limited conectivity during a trip I had to do the last couple of days).

It was kind of a bummer the MIT ding. I believed it was a good application, and having interviewed with Wharton, I had the feeling that I would have the chance to interview with MIT! However, it did not happen.

Anyway, I am very happy that Chicago Booth and Kellogg had admitted me! And I look forward to getting to know the schools even better to make a decision! Furthermore, don't forget about Tuck!!
