Thanks for the info. I definitely have been applying to schools I didn't go to, mainly because my alma mater is too far away
! There's lots of great schools in this part of the state mainly because it's on the border of PA/OH/WV/MD, it's just a matter of finding them.
Littleowl, can you tell me a bit about how much travel the people in your office do? Is it spread out over the year (like 2-3 days a month every month) or is there one particular time that you're gone for a lot longer (2-3 weeks in say October or something)? I'm just trying to gauge what the travel requirement is like...I definitely DO like to travel and this isn't a bad thing at all, I'm just curious.
