A New Plan C

After starting a GMAT practice test last night and giving up after 6 math questions (I only got one right) I decided maybe it was not worth it to kill myself over plan C. True, I would have no problem with the test if I decided to put some effort into studying for it. I was always good at math I am just out of practice. Yet why kill myself over something that I don't really want to do? Also that time would be much better spent focusing on my plan A, Bezalel and getting together a portfolio.

My new plan C is an MA in communications at Ben Gurion. So, exiling myself to the desert for 2-3 years is a pretty intense idea, but it is better than Toronto. On top of that everyone I know who has gone (is attending) Ben Gurion loves it. And the woman I emailed there emailed me back right away and in Israel that is one in a million. The program there sounds really good. It is all innovative and interdisciplinary and I really think it will get me thinking.

The grad school roster as it stands:
First Round Draft Pick- Mdes in design management at Bezalel (Jerusalem)
Second Round Draft Pick- MSc in industrial design at Technion (Haifa)
Third Round Draft Pick- MA in communications at Ben Gurion (Beer Sheva)
