MBA Admissions Consulting — What It Is and Why You Need It

Even supremely confident applicants with extensive experience in business at times feel lost during the application process. “What exactly IS a personal statement?” you might wonder. “Is there a right answer to this question, or it is just open-ended? Should I apply for first-round decisions with a so-so GMAT score, or take the test again and wait for second-round decisions?”

If you’ve been having the existential crisis of the business school application, you probably know how difficult it is to get unbiased assistance from people truly in the know. MBAs at your workplace rarely have the time to talk, and often have forgotten many of their experiences. College advisors often times have only limited expertise about business school applications; and those of us who are a few years out of college may not have easy access to their help.

It’s time to get serious and get help from a real expert: a real, unbiased, business school admissions officer.

Just to give you an idea: let’s say you have the opportunity to do a practice interview with an admissions officer from Wharton who has years of experience deciding whether applicants like yourself have the right stuff for business school. He also assists you with your entire collection of application essays, helps you narrow down your selection of schools to those which are not only the most realistic but that suit your career goals the best, and gives you a clear picture about the business school experience.

You’d probably jump at the chance, wouldn’t you? If you want to be a truly competitive applicant for business school, then you need the guidance of a true expert.
