    hi Umer

    Thanks for blogging your experience at Wharton. I found it very useful and engaging. However, your read more links are broken in every blog all the way back to Feb 2008. Can you please fix them?

    Thanks and keep blogging

    Svasa,

    Glad you are enjoying the blog. My contribution to this blog is marginal though. RVD has written 184 posts, while I have written 24! Which means he has put in at least 8 times the effort that I have :-) Tough to balance work, school, family, AND a blog on top of that. I don’t know how RVD does it!

    As far as the broken links, could you please let us know which links are broken? I tried clicking on a few and they all seemed to work. What is the sequence of clicks that you went through to find the broken links?

    Nevermind about the broken links. Looks like RVD already resolved the issue :-)
