April 11: Online Seminar “MBA Admissions Myths Destroyed”

What have you been told about applying to business school and by whom?

With the advent of chat rooms and blogs “armchair experts” often unintentionally propagate MBA admissions myths, which can linger and either undermine your confidence as an applicant or give you undue certainty. Some applicants are led to believe that schools want a specific “type” of candidate or expect certain GMAT scores and GPAs. Others are led to believe that they need to know alumni from their target schools or get a letter of reference from the CEO of their firm in order to gain admission to a top-school.

Join us as we debunk these and other myths, take the anxiety out of the admissions process and refocus you on your applications.

All attendees at this exclusive event will receive:

  • $100 off any 9-session ManhattanGMAT course
  • Free access to a ManhattanGMAT computer adaptive practice exam
  • Free half hour consultation with an mbaMission consultant
