We are thrilled to be able to share audio from the 2025 Clear Admit MBA Fair. In this panel, admissions deans from Emory Goizueta, MIT Sloan, UCLA Anderson and Yale School of Management help decode the MBA experience by explaining who goes, what the core curriculum consists of, how schools deploy different teaching methods, and much more: Do you need a business background to be competitive? What will you study—and how will you learn it? From core curriculum and teaching methods to timing your application and choosing the right program, this panel demystifies every step of the process.
