Guest Blog: Post-Tuck Perspectives - Suds T. T’10
Blog Guest, May 30, 2012
There is no denying the fact that Tuck alumni are the best. When I was going through the application process, alumni helped me learn more about the program and the opportunities Tuck has to offer. When I wasn’t talking to a Tuckie, my go-to source was Continue Reading
First year over! (Best year of my life)
Justin R T'13, May 27, 2012
Wow. I can’t believe my first year is over. Fall A and B, Winter and Spring Terms. All over. What an experience it’s been. It was pretty difficult zeroing in on a particular topic to write about for this post because so much has happened in Continue Reading2012 in quotes
Ken F. T'12, May 23, 2012
One of my most popular posts during my two years here was Fall term in quotes, an unashamedly brief insight into some one-liners from my professors that ranged from insightful to cryptic, absurd to amusing, and thought-provoking to indecipherable in isolation. Here are quotes from the outstanding faculty I've Continue Reading
And… it’s over
Ken F. T'12, May 22, 2012
My first class at Tuck was the Yellowtail case in AGM. My study group had spent literally hours preparing it - reading, analyzing, calculating, debating - and we were relatively efficient. Some groups went as far as to check flight schedules between cities mentioned in the case, to figure out Continue Reading
Sights, scents and sounds of spring
Ken F. T'12, May 18, 2012
I still vividly remember the scent of the Tuck admissions materials. The rich paper was distinctive - crisp, luxurious, rustic - as though it had been made in an artisan paper mill in the admissions suite on campus. I half expected to turn up and find the whole school was Continue Reading
Facebook Valuation
Luis G - T'13, May 16, 2012
The dividend discount model is one of the valuation techniques I learned in Financial Statement Interpretation and Analysis, a class that prepares students to effectively analyze and interpret financial statements. Basically, the dividend discount model says that the value of a company is worth the discounted sum of all Continue ReadingThe Honeymoon Might be Over
Juliet H. T'14, May 11, 2012
As an admit from Early Action, I have had the great luxury of basking in my acceptance to Tuck for a few months now. But the realities are starting to sink in. December 16, 2011 turned out to be a good day. Incidentally it was exactly one year after a moderately Continue Reading
Unparalleled Access
Ken F. T'12, May 10, 2012
In today's FSIA class (an elective in which students perform fundamental financial and strategic analysis on companies to decide whether individual stocks are worth investing in), the industry under review was media and entertainment. We had two visitors in class to hear and give feedback on student presentations about Continue ReadingGuest Blog: Kate Head T’13 and Health Care at Tuck
Blog Guest, May 08, 2012
I came to Tuck with two goals: transition into consulting and focus on health care. I still have a lot more that I want to do, but I wanted to take this opportunity to brag about unique aspects of health care at Tuck and the resources available for Tuckies to Continue Reading
Freedom Tower
Ken F. T'12, May 07, 2012
There were some dark, dark days. My first memory of the whole thing is lying flat on my back on the burnt grass of a soccer field, looking down my body and seeing my knee cap on the side of my calf, and my lower leg at a horrific, unnatural Continue ReadingGuest Blog: Jeff Zhou T’14 and the Tuck Alumni Network
Blog Guest, May 06, 2012
Jeff Zhou was born and raised in China, and is now living in Austin, Texas. Prior to Tuck, he worked in Corporate Development for a large media company. Honestly, when I first began the b-school application process, I wasn’t too sure about Tuck. I came from a Continue Reading
The Beginning of the End
Ken F. T'12, May 04, 2012
It's real. It's actually happening. We T'12s are going to have to graduate and re-enter the real world. Soon. If you had asked me before spring break when I'd like to start work, I would have said, "tomorrow". Not that I wasn't having a great Continue ReadingFollow Admissions
