March 10: MBA Admissions Myths Destroyed (Online)

What have you been told about applying to business school? With the advent of chat rooms and blogs, armchair “experts” often unintentionally propagate MBA admissions myths, which can linger and undermine applicants’ confidence. For example, some applicants are led to believe that schools want a specific “type” of candidate and expect certain GMAT scores and/or GPAs. Others are led to believe that they need to know alumni from their target schools and/or get a letter of reference from the CEO of their firm to get in.

Join Jeremy Shinewald, founder and president of mbaMission, as he debunks these and other myths, strives to take the anxiety out of the admissions process and refocuses you on your applications.

A Q&A session with Jeremy will follow the presentation.

Date: Thursday, March 10, 2011
