In this week’s MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. We are seeing several top MBA programs releasing interview invites for Round 2, including Yale SOM, Berkeley / Haas, Northwestern / Kellogg, UNC / Kenan Flagler, Rice / Jones, UVA / Darden, CMU / Tepper, Cornell / Johnson, UCLA / Anderson, Indiana / Kelley and Georgetown / McDonough.
This led to a discussion about our newest product launch, Clear Admit’s MBA Interview simulator. This simulator is designed to provide a realistic interview experience for twenty top MBA programs, and provide detailed feedback. It is trained on Clear Admit’s extensive catalogue of interview resources including its interview archive and interview guides.
Graham highlighted MBA webinar events that are on the horizon that Clear Admit is hosting. The first webinar looks at the enduring value of the MBA, scheduled for Wednesday. The second series of events is for deferred admissions candidates who are currently completing their first degrees. Signups are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events
Graham noted two MBA admissions tips. The first focuses on MBA interview invite timelines for Round 2. The second admissions tip examines Wharton’s Team-based Interview approach. Graham then noted a Real Humans piece spotlighting students from Minnesota Carlson.
For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries and one DecisionWire entry:
This week’s first MBA admissions candidate has a deferred admissions spot at Darden. They are planning to apply to a few M7 programs next season.
This week’s second MBA applicant was admitted to Fuqua, among other programs, in Round 1. They are also looking at several M7 programs in Round 2.
This week’s final MBA candidate has several offers from leading MBA programs. They want to focus on media and entertainment, post MBA. They are deciding between Darden with a scholarship and Columbia.
