I've been thinking about getting an MBA for a couple of years now, and about a year ago I started preparing myself for it. Since I'm an international student I had to take the GMAT and TOEFL exams.

I have no problems with english in general so TOEFL wasn't so hard (110/120 on the iBT), GMAT was kind of tricky though. I studied really hard but got a little nervous and anxious during the test, so I only got a 620 (not a bad score, but I was expecting a 650 at least). Anyway, since it's an expensive exam to give I told myself I wouldn't take it again unless it was absolutely necesary.

I started looking for MBA programs and decided to aim for the University of Texas in Dallas, I didn't want a 2 years program and this one met my expectations. I sent my essays, had the interviews and got a mail last friday: I got accepted =].

The program starts in August 11th so I should be going there in July, probably on the 20th or so in order to stablish myself and get to know a little of Texas.

It has been a long and exhausting way up until now, but I guess it all starts again now.

Any TLers over there? It would be nice to talk to someone to have some pre-knowledge of how is it over there.

The coolest part of Dallas is the Greenville area... take 75 (central expressway) south from where you are and exit Lovers Lane, hop over half a block east and get on Greenville Ave. and drive down and explore. The Lakewood area just to the East of there is pretty cool as well (and you can hang out by the lake if it's not too hot). Up where you are is just burbville mostly, although there is a Chinatown area around 75 and Arapaho (a bit to the south of you) where you can get some decent grub... I recommend checking out a place called Genroku
