About the MBA Admissions GuideI
came up with the idea for this guide when I was applying to
MBA programs myself. While I was reading the essay questions
from various schools, I realized that the questions asked
about all the extraordinary and great things that you have
done prior to applying to business school. The problem is that
by the time you are applying, you don¡¯t have time to change
what you have done in your life. In other words, in order to
truly prepare for the MBA application, you have to prepare
years ahead. Now, I don¡¯t expect everyone to be reading this
guide straight out of undergraduate but the more time you have
prior to your application, the better chance you have of
presenting the best possible image of yourself to the
admissions committee. Please note that this guide does not
promise any short cuts or ¡°secrets¡± to help you get admitted.
It presents a roadmap to help you prepare early and correctly
to best increase your chances of getting in. |
