I just came across this article entitled “Five things you should do right now if you’re considering going to grad school.” It was the title that grabbed my attention, but I’m most pleased with what’s inside.
The author co-founded an admissions consulting company after getting his MBA. Since he’s in the business of helping folks like you get into the program of their choice, perhaps the article is worth a read. When you do read it, pay very close attention to what the author says under step #2: Study. I’m going to quote a few lines of it for you just in case you’re pressed for time and can only read my blog post. You need to hear this:
“Test scores have never been as important as they are today … whatever you do, don’t let test scores keep you out of grad school. This is the one aspect of the process that you can control the easiest.”
I’m in the test prep business and he’s in the admissions business, but both of us are in the get-you-into-grad-school business. Take control of your future and get that GMAT score up! It is eminently possible. All you need to do is work for it. No excuses.
