\"B-Schooled\"<\/p>\n

In this replay of a popular B-Schooled<\/em> pod, Erika is joined by her SBC colleague Lisa, former Director of MBA Admissions for the full-time and part-time MBA programs at Rice University\u2019s Jones School. In it, they have a candid discussion about when it is and isn’t a good idea to share deeply personal stories in your MBA essays or interview responses.<\/p>\n
