Make sure you complete all 3 levels of CFA. And use the rest of the time to improve your extracurriculars and community leadership so you'll be well positioned when it's time to apply.

Thanks Juvelle. Dont have a student interview lined up for it, but will create a video independently for it. The mechanics should largely be the same though.
Can you please help me get in contact with Poona, as I want to apply to the Rotman and have some queries about it?
I am confused about one thing mentioned in this interview. He mentioned he upload 4 picutres in total for the spike factor essay. 1 with the circuit, 1 with all the trading terminals, 1 in a sports event and 1 of modelling. Doesn't the essay only allow for 3 pictures? Can you please clarify this?

What he showcased for the 1st spike of analytics was the journey from a circuit board during engineering to a trading terminal at work.. he combined the two pictures and captioned it as such

@@AshwinVishwanathan Got it! Just a follow up. Can you explain how the spike factor pictures and the essay go hand in hand. Because all the pictures are to be uploaded as a single pdf seperately from the written essay. So if the pictures are not inside the essay, how is the reference made to the pictures? Does one lable the pictures (1, 2 and 3) in the pdf and then reference is made towards them in the essay? Or does it work in some other way?

Having learned about uploading 3 pictures, now I feel bad that I cant apply to Rotman. I never clicked photos of mine, epecially in college. I literally have 0 pics of me doing anything to talk about.

Same here Harshit. I disliked posing for photographs and it certainly becomes a disadvantage -- who knew?! However, think of creative ways - are there pictures that are representative of what you've done? Do you doodle? There are many creative ways to showcase you on the essays.
