Weekly Roundup for Clear Admit’s MBA Podcast
In this week’s MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing upcoming MBA admissions deadlines. For this upcoming week, MIT / Sloan, Duke / Fuqua, CMU / Tepper, Emory / Goizueta, UNC / Kenan Flagler, UCLA / Anderson, Georgetown / McDonough, Washington / Foster, Minnesota / Carlson, Vanderbilt, Maryland / Smith and BYU / Marriott all have admissions deadlines.
Graham highlighted Clear Admit’s current webinar events. This week, Clear Admit continues its six-webinar events series that focuses on insider tips for the MBA admissions process. These events feature admissions professionals from 30 top MBA programs. After this series, Clear Admit will host its Real Humans webinar series, as well as its admissions series that focuses on specific regions of the United States. Signups for all these events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events
Graham highlighted a Future of Graduate Management Education event he attended in London, hosted by GMAC. Lots of great conversations centered on the impact of AI, as well as the changing geopolitical landscape and its impact on the MBA program offering. Graham then noted two admissions tips Clear Admit recently published, focused on the interview process. This led to a discussion on all the tools Clear Admit offers candidates to prepare for their interviews. These include the interview report archive, the admissions bot (great for interview preparation) and the interview simulator (great for interview practice).
Graham highlighted a recently published Adcom Q&A from Michigan / Ross.
Clear Admit continues its Real Humans series which focuses on current students at top MBA programs. This week we profile MBA students from Indiana / Kelley and NYU / Stern.
For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries.
Two MBA Admissions Candidates Reviewed
This week’s first MBA admissions candidate is a first-generation college graduate who also has a masters degree. They work in the non-profit sector. We worry about their lack of a quant-related profile.
This week’s second MBA applicant has all the attributes that top-tier MBA programs seek. We provided a little advice on school selection.
First-gen, low quant
Top profile, school selection
