I hear that bricklaying and hod carrying are making a comeback. Maybe you should give that a try instead of grad school.

Hi,
I’m a reporter for a major daily newspaper and am thinking about applying to the MBA program at UVA. Would you mind chatting with me about it over e-mail or phone?
I need to decide pretty quickly if I want to go for it since the application is due in a little over a week.
Thanks,
Diana

Hi!
I really like how articulate and easy-to-read your blog is. It would be great if we could get in touch just to share some ideas. I will start my MBA in November and I am currently writing a blog in the FT. Let me know if you have a couple of minutes.
Regards.

This is a wonderful blog! Reading it has answered almost all the questions I had about what it’s like to go to Darden as a woman with a non-business background. Thank you so much for sharing!

Great blog. I live in the West Coast and I know a lot of successful people who graduated from Darden. The school’s reach is definitely impressive.

Dear missmba,
I work with Aringo.com, one of the top MBA admission consulting firms.
After following your blog for quite some time I thought we could post a link to your blog on our blog (blog.aringo.com) and vice versa, just as we already do with our partners GmatClub.com.
Makes sense? Any other ideas for collaboration?
Thanks,
Gilad
