The Best Business Schools' Admissions Secrets: A Former Harvard Business School Admissions Board Member Reveals the Insider Keys to Getting In 2nd Edition

This book is the perfect guide for your MBA application. I have used it as my "to go tool" and it has helped me understand what steps I need to take in order to be accepted into top MBA programs. Since I am not a consultant or banker, I really liked the tips for all types of candidates (consultants vs entrepreneurs vs artists) and the discussion about the challenges that they each face.Even if you are just considering applying to an MBA, this book will help you make up your mind. You will get the big picture of why/how to apply!

I highly recommend reading this book at least 1-2 yeas before applying to any MBA program. This book will help you define your personal brand and guide you through the entire process. A must read for anyone who is not sure of what needs to be done and how to better his/her overall application

While the analogies are useful and productive, basing the entire book off of them seems to be quite deceptive. The strategy's in this book sound reasonable, but at the same time, are reasoned through analogies and jargon.

This book is a must for anyone who wants to get into a B school at a the top university.

I was an international student in a field where a ton of my colleagues didn't go for their MBA. Chioma's book, The Best Business Schools' Admissions Secrets became almost like a bible in helping me follow the step-by-step process of the application from knowing what parts of my brand to communicate to make sure my recommenders were aware of my overall story. I'm so glad I found this book. In fact, I came across this book while doing my MBA research and saw a guy on YouTube talk about how he didn't even use a consultant but followed this book's guidance. He got into all his schools including Stanford. I figured I had nothing to lose so I got it and he was right. After doing a lot of soul searching, writing and re-writing my stories I am proud to say that I got admitted to Harvard Business School. This is a dream come true and I hope your business school ambitions will come true too. This book will give you an edge.

I just started to read it, now finish ~10%. I have already recommended to my friends since it addresses lots of questions I normally would ask my friends about MBA application. It indeed save lots of effort to do online study if read the book in advance. It is definitely a great book to help MBA application process!
