Help needed... for MS aspirant..

While we MBA aspirants get a lot of valuable information from the blogging community, I was just wondering if there exists such a fraternity for Master of Science (MS) aspirants...

If you know of any such resources for the tech people, plz plz drop a comment... I actually need this for a friend who is into some doubts related to MS admissions...

Thanks a lot!!

Pre-MBA ponderings...

Just to cross-check...

Since the time I have got an admit, I am feeling as if I have very less time and there is so much to do before August 2007... Is this the feeling everywhere?

I was talking to a current student about the pre-MBA plans, who mentioned that I was just getting a bit more excited... But when I know that I am going to be the youngest member of my batch, I seriously feel there is a lot of homework to be done before joining... And considering that I am just dumped with piles of work and a new team to handle, things get that much more time-less.... Any thoughts on keeping the papers down before verfication and VISA?

Uni of North Carolina... :(

To me it seems like a sine wave, with its magnitude extending on either sides of the time line...
If last week was the positive peak, this week is the negative... :(

Dinged by UNC... :(
I now realize... It does not hurt much when you already have an admit in your pocket...
But then too, am a bit disappointed... M not sure if I would have joined UNC over Emory (which comes with $$$), but yet, a rejection is after all a rejection.... It deserves its share of sad smileys... :(:(:(...

:):)

Edited:
Just dropped back to add a note... I was going through my UNC essays and found out the stupidest mistake ever... The name of the school is Kenan Flagler Business School (KFBS) and from dont know where I have mentioned "KNBS" everywhere in my essays.... :):) Not sure, if this had an impact on the decision, but it is certainly something that should have been avoided...

Into the GBS, Emory University with $$$!

Where should I start from? :):)
Just when I was thinking to write down a mail to the adcom, asking them to send in the decision as the wait was getting intolerable, I have their mail in my inbox! This is pure telepathy!!

Admitted to Goizueta Business School, Emory University with a hefty scholarship!!!
The first real taste of success for the year... :)
The feeling has not yet sinked in!!
