<p>Elul works at the Federal Reserve Bank in Philadelphia.</p>
<p>Whartonadvisor: even if Professor Elul is a visiting professor, am I able to refer to him in one of my essays about how I visited his class and what I learned from that experience?</p>
<p>This may come as a shock to you, but you are not the only applicant with a tough courseload. I felt that I got a lot more out of college visits if I visited when they were in session rather than during the summer. The campuses were much more alive when I visited during the school year. I had a very demanding schedule and taking off one day sometimes meant I would be busy for a week to catch up, but to me finding the perfect school was more important than a few points difference in high school. Keep in mind that your grades are already pretty much set, and taking off one day probably won't have such a significant effect that you will fail out and colleges reject you. I did not get in with all As.</p>
<p>It is not a matter of losing a few points, it's a matter of me having to be on top of everything going on next year, not only including academics. I already visited that class and I am happy I did. sweetnsarah- I know that there are a lot of people with a courseload that is as tough as mine and even tougher. I am not comparing myself to anyone, but rather trying to figure out what the best course of action for me to take is.</p>
<p>World - It's your essay. You can write about anything you want. </p>
<p>Though I think it may be hard to articulate what you learned in a couple of hours in the last week of a senior level FNCE course, which is why we don't have those types courses on our list.</p>
<p>I actually think I can find a way to articulate what I learned. I am going to take one aspect of that class that was taught the day I visited and elaborate how it has to deal with the current class I am taking and everything else I learned.</p>
