In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing some of the recent activity on LiveWire, recognizing that we are now moving into the new application cycle.

Graham highlighted Clear Admit’s ongoing summer series of webinars, which focuses on top MBA programs’ admissions essays, which will be attended by more than 20 of the top MBA programs. The third event is on Wednesday of this week, and includes Columbia, Georgia Tech / Scheller, Insead, London Business School and Washington / Foster. Signups are here: https://bit.ly/mbaessay0725

Graham then noted two admissions tips. The first focuses on how to create a resume for MBA admissions.  The second, part of Clear Admit’s “Mythbusters” series, discusses whether top MBA programs only provide you access to careers in Strategy consulting, Investment banking and Technology.

We continue our series of Adcom Q&As, this week we have Q&As from Toronto / Rotman and Ohio State / Fisher.

Finally, Graham highlighted a recently published podcast that focuses on the core elements of an MBA applicant’s profile: test scores, grades, work experience and outside activities. This is a recording from a panel discussion from our summer event in Boston, and includes representatives from Columbia, Cornell / Johnson, Dartmouth / Tuck, and Georgia Tech / Scheller.

For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries:

This week’s first MBA admissions candidate enlisted in the military. They had a GMAT of 655, then retook the test to score a 695.

This week’s second MBA candidate has a 330 GRE score and is looking to do a dual degree in sustainability.

The final MBA candidate is a startup founder. They have also worked as a product manager. They are a first-generation immigrant and have a 331 GRE score.

This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who’ve been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!
