Some applicants are led to believe that schools want a specific \u201ctype\u201d 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.
