Save the Life of a Child!

Los Angeles Girl Needs Kidney To Survive:
Parents Searching for Compatible Donor

The parents of an Israeli child born with a sole, malfunctioning kidney are in a desperate race against time to find a compatible donor who can save their five year-old child’s life.
Chana Bogatz was already critically ill when she was born. Diagnosed with a diseased kidney, Chana began dialysis at the early age of three months. At ten months, the tiny vessels used for dialysis had been exhausted and could no longer sustain dialysis treatment. With Chana’s life at stake, her devastated parents left their home in Israel, within one day’s notice, and headed for America, in the hopes of receiving life saving emergency treatment. In April 2001, she received an infant cadaver renal transplant at Stanford Medical Center in Palo Alto, California. An infant donor’s blood vessels are very tiny and there is a high probability that they will clog, therefore, the procedure was considered a “bridge transplant”; a temporary measure that would buy more time for Chana as she continued to wait for a more compatible kidney. This temporary measure enabled Chana to continue living without dialysis. Shortly after receiving the transplant that saved her young life, Chana was placed back on the transplant list. A year later, as anticipated, the kidney failed, but the elapsed time had allowed for Chana’s vessels to grow. Once again she was able to receive the life saving dialysis treatment.
Chana has again reached a critical stage in her treatment as dialysis could fail at any moment. Her physicians have told her parents that she is in end stage renal disease and that without a kidney transplant she will die. Unfortunately, Chana’s parents, Yehudis and Mordechai Bogatz, are not compatible donors, and they must look outside the family for a donor.
Ever since Chana’s first donated kidney failed, her parents knew that moving up on the donor list was critical for their daughter. The deterioration of her condition has spurred them to make a public plea on their daughter’s behalf.
“We are desperately hoping that someone will come forward. Our daughter’s life hangs in the balance,” said Yehudis.
Suitable donors must be between eighteen and forty-five years old, have type O blood, and be in good health. There is no cost to be screened and the donor’s medical expenses will be fully covered.
For more information on how to help Chana or be tested for compatibility as a kidney donor for the child, call 800 SAVE A LIFE (800-728-3254) or visit http://www.savechana.org.

Kristen,

The word on the MBA street is that the Chicago admissions policy is special in their encouragement of the applicants' creativity. How true is that? Some even say that this is probably the most important quality that an application to Chicago GSB can have (grades, work experience and the such being held equal).

Would you say you are looking for creativity in work history and recommendations and the interviews as well, or is it that important only in the essays?

Because you know, I can come to the interview dressed as a medieval knight, if that's what it takes… I've got the armor ready.

Hi Kristen

Thanks for being here today!

There's a common problem that most of us israelis come across at one point or another – I'm talking about the grade conversion issue. Is there a universally acceptable way of converting grades from the israeli scale of 0-100 with a passing grade of 56 into the american letter scale?

Thanks!

For each essay, describe the situation, your thoughts and actions, and the outcome.

• Essay One: Please give an example when your actions had an impact on a person, group, or an organization (up to 500 words).
• Essay Two: Please give an example when your thinking was different from others’ (up to 500 words).
• Essay Three: Please give an example when you were part of a high or low performing team (up to 500 words).
• Essay Four: Please tell us something meaningful in your life over the past year (up to 500 words).

These are the new ones, I checked.

שלום לכולם!

אני צריך עצה לגבי החיבורים של Yale…

למי שלא יודע: ייל פירסמו את האפליקיישן שלהם לפני כמה ימים, והקטע על החיבורים נראה ככה:

1. Please describe your short- and long-term goals and how your previos experience and an MBA will help you to achieve these goals (500 words maximum).

2. Please develop a question/topic of your choice and answer it in essay form (500 words maximum).
Some example questions/topics include:

Describe a situation in wich your leadership and/or teamwork had a significant impact.
What personal achievement are you most proud of and why?
What activities do you enjoy outside the office and/or classroom?
How would a colleague describe you?
Describe your career history, highlighting transitions and what you have learned from each position.
What is the most difficult feedback that you have received and how did you address it?
Where is the most exsiting place you have ever been and what did you learn from being there?
Describe a situation where you questioned your values and/or beliefs.
How would you want the admissions committee to sumarize your application in a decision meeting?

אז הדילמה שלי לגבי השאלה השנייה היא האם עדיף להמציא נושא משלי, או ללכת על אחד הנושאים שהם הציעו? מצד אחד, נושא אינדיבידואלי יהיה יותר ייחודי ובטח נמאס להם לקרוא טונות של חיבורים זהים, אבל מצד שני הם לא הציעו את זה סתם, נכון? כנראה שהדברים האלה באמת מעניינים אותם, ואני לא יכול להיות בטוח בזה לגבי נושא משלי..

עצות ורעיונות יתקבלו בברכה.
תודה!
