Most business schools will ask you to discuss your career goals in your MBA application. Why do MBA programs ask about your goals when they know that your plans may change while you're in business school? And how do they evaluate your goals? In our latest episode of the mbaMission podcast, Harold Simansky, Susan McInerny, and Jeremy Shinewald discuss what makes a "good" post-MBA goal, and why it is critical to identify goals that are right for YOU, rather than presenting goals that you think the admissions committees want to hear.
