If you want some insight on the following myths, check out Melisa Prevost's recent blog post:
1. “R1 applications don’t come out until June/July, so there’s nothing you really need to do until then.”
2. “You must either come from or plan to transition to finance or consulting.”
3. “I need a 750 on the GMAT to be accepted.”
4. “Recommendation letters must come from a senior executive at your employer to be credible.”
5. “Leadership experiences must come from work; academic and social leadership experiences won’t carry as much weight.”
6. “All volunteering/nonprofit work will be perceived as equivalent. Having these activities on your application is simply a matter of ‘checking the box.’”
7. “It’s R1 or bust!”
8. “Ranking is the most important thing when identifying the best business school for you.”
