PREPARATION | APPLICATION | INTERVIEW | DECISIONS
INITIAL CONSULTATION AND ASSESSMENT
Send us your CV and we’ll give you a call to discuss your career goals, academic aspirations and your chances of attending a top program. Based on this discussion, we’ll determine if and how Clear Admit might be of help.
EDUCATION
Once you become a client, you’ll have access to our inside knowledge of what schools are looking for. We’ll explain the criteria that schools are assessing – based on your background. You will not only learn what schools are looking for, but also how various schools compare to each other.
STRATEGY AND POSITIONING
After you understand the way your file will be assessed, we’ll work with you to position yourself in an appealing way to each program. All of our clients fill out an extensive questionnaire that the Clear Admit team uses to craft a recommended positioning strategy. We’ll make sure you develop a plan for success – so that you can answer the vital questions about your career history, future goals and desire for an MBA. Finally, we will work with you to target the schools that best fit your needs.
SCHEDULING
Many great applicants miss the boat by failing to meet deadlines or rushing to put a file together at the 11th hour. The founders of Clear Admit have been there before – juggling work, applications and daily life – and we’ll show you how to set up a timetable to ensure that everything is polished and finished on time. Our clients are often shocked at the amount of work that goes into applying—which is why time management is so crucial.

-Taking the GRE in Oct
Any advice on a range for a target GRE score and based on my profile do you think the 3.3 will hold me back from those top M7/T15 schools that I plan to apply to?
(I assume to help offset the 3.3, my GRE score will need to be pretty high)
I am thinking of doing Booth and Stanford Full time applications and Kellogg part time and also thinking of doing Booth part time as well since I have a low years of experience in a non consulting role. Knowing all this and my GPA what would an ideal GMAT score look like for me?
I’m in knowledge consulting (a bit more specialised than generalist track with lower client exposure - but I’ve been fortunate to work directly with most of my clients)
Currently 4 yoe
I don’t have anything particularly distinct in my profile apart from this
