I’ve recently blogged a few times about time I spent preparing for the GMAT. Though the exam is over, the approximately 10 weeks I spent preparing really opened my eyes and made me aware of things I didn’t previously notice about myself. One of the ways I...

Preparing for the GMAT

by Caleb | Mar 11, 2018 | 1 comment

As my GMAT test date approaches I’ve been steadily increasing the amount of studying I’m doing. I’ve been aiming for about 4 hours per day and have also been targeting one full practice exam each weekend. This past week was extremely productive for me, and I was able...

by Caleb | Feb 4, 2018 | 2 comments

As I begin my last semester at Penn State I’m both looking forward to graduating but also feeling a bit sad that college is coming to an end. The past 3 and a half years of my life have been an amazing experience. I’ve been challenged, I’ve learned,...

In my BA 342 class we’ve been asked to explore our personal experience with ethics. Ethics to me is defined by balancing the fine line between an individual’s responsibility to themselves and to the key stakeholders affected by their actions while operating...

Reflecting on my final SHO TIME

by Caleb | Aug 27, 2017

Coming away from my last SHO TIME experience I believe I’ve been able to learn and grow in the ways I had hoped and expected to, but also in ways I did not expect to. A major part of my goal for SHO TIME 2017 was to lead by example, provide guidance and direction,...
