Intro to My Blog

In my blog I am planning to write about my experience of going through the MBA program as a part-time student, full-time employee, full-time husband and father. I hope that some of my experience will be helpful to others who are considering taking on this endeavor of going part-time or even full-time MBA for that matter.

My personal way to MBA was very long. Suffice it to say, I am in my early forties. Not your typical MBA candidate. I really wish someone could tell me many of the things I know now may be 5-9 years ago. That’s why in my posts I will try to be personal, honest, informative, and hopefully regular. What I am trying to accomplish is just to give my personal perspective, so the readers could have additional information to help them in making some of the many decisions connected with the pursuit of MBA.

There is a lot of information about MBA programs, schools, courses etc on formal, official, semi-official sites of all kinds pertinent to ‘everything MBA’. There are also a lot of private blogs and websites from current and former student. All those sites combined provide a mother lode of information for prospective students. I hope that my blog will add some valuable insights to this wealth of information.

I am a part-time MBA student in Washington, DC area. I am in my first term right now, so hopefully I still have a lot to share about in my next three or so years of going through the business school.

I realize that many of the readers could be prospective students and they are specifically interested in the application/preparation aspect of the MBA experience (I know I was, and intensly so). I will share some of the things that I think could be helpful for the aspiring students. They will be posted in ‘MBA Introspection’ section of my blog.

Otherwise I will try to keep up to date on my current journey through the program, so you might know what to expect once you overcome all the hurdles of application and get admitted to the school of your choice. May be for some readers my insights will serve as deterrent, but I think that for most of the MBA aspirants it will serve as encouragement and motivation.
