TopMBA Weekly Pulse: July 3, 2014

The MBA admissions process is a pressing concern for someone at any point during a year, so following a blogger like MBA on My Mind is always exciting, especially when you can catch them at the beginning of the process.

Writing with the same theme in mind, Emily Reynolds has laid out some good strategies for applicants and applications in her guest blog about the importance of narrative in her Said Business School application for GotMBA.co.

Meanwhile Archana Chauhan, who starts her INSEAD MBA journey this year, offers some advice for folks who felt their GMAT score was a bit lower than they would like.

If you looking to learn from the experiences of others check out this introspective blog from Grant about the mistakes he made last year when he was applying for business schools and MBA programs.

Stepping away from the subject of MBA admissions in search of refreshment, leads us to a blog from Pathik Bhatt, Kelley School of Business MBA candidate, offering an insight into everything from the misuse of social media to the LeBron James free agency saga at the 2014 Higher Education Conference in Tempe, Arizona.

Finally, why not get to know the new MBA candidates writing for UCLA Anderson’s student blog, The Student Voice, or take a first-hand look at interning at Google from a current Anderson student. There’s also some excellent advice for freelancers who are trying to build a strong MBA application résumé from mbaMission.
