Notes:

Shot for the stars and ended up hitting one! I declined the waitlists at Ross and Anderson to accept a good scholarship offer. Advice to to future applicants: Show your most genuine self in your application! Adcoms want to know YOU, not read what you think they want to see. Be a genuine, awesome person, and it will all work out.

Post MBA Career Name: Consulting
Application Location: Bay Area
Note:

I received my interview invite last Friday on 4/25/24, and was only able to select the prerecorded option due to a lack of availability of the Zoom interview option. The Haas prerecorded interview experience was much better than other schools in that it provided 45 seconds to prepare, and 3 minutes to respond for each question, which allowed for me to present myself authentically without feeling rushed.
