A Tough Year for MBA’s!

Bad Year
This is turning out to be one tough year for b school applicants.  Not a day goes by where I don’t hear about a student who scored high 700’s on their GMAT and isn’t getting into school.  When I applied, I thought my score would carry me through any application.  It didn’t.  What most people fail to realize is how important a well rounded application is.  It’s not just about your scores.  It’s about your experience, your management potential, your passion for the school you’re applying to, and a whole lot of other intangibles.  I never realized this until I got to Haas and became involved in the application process as a student interviewer.  It really gave me great insight into the process.

Welcome to the launch of MBAAppHelp.com

Welcome all.  I’m officially launching MBAAppHelp.com today.  I’ve been helping students apply to business school for the last several years and wanted to begin helping a wider audience.  That’s why I decided to launch this site.  I’ll use this blog to give people updates on the MBA climate, application tips, and other information to help make your application process that much more transparent.
