November 2017 Event Roundup

Are you applying to business school this year? If so, you can enroll in one of our free business school workshops, which are offered both online and in person in major cities across the country!

This month, we invite you to join us in NYC and online! The event lineup includes the following sessions:

  • November 9
    Avoiding the Traps of the Overrepresented MBA Applicant (Online)
    How can you stand out if you are in an overrepresented applicant group? An experienced senior consultant will help prospective MBAs understand how to identify and showcase distinct aspects of your profile that will distinguish you from others.
  • November 14
    MBA Interview Workshop (Online)
    What do you need to do to prepare for your business school interview? An experienced senior consultant will help prospective MBAs understand the types of questions that may be asked to best prepare for interviews.
  • November 15
    MBA Admissions Myths Destroyed (Online)
    With the advent of chat rooms, blogs and forums, armchair “experts” often unintentionally propagate MBA admissions myths, which can linger and undermine an applicant’s confidence. Some applicants are led to believe that schools want a specific “type” of a candidate and expect certain GMAT scores and GPAs, for example. 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 in order to get in. Join us as we debunk these and other myths, strive to take the anxiety out of the admissions process, and refocus you on your applications.
  •  November 30
    Assessing Your MBA Profile (NYC)
    In this session, learn to assess the quantitative and qualitative factors you bring to the table to better anticipate how you might be viewed by the admissions committee at the school of your dreams…and what you can do to improve that assessment!
