Many MBA applicants focus heavily on test scores and essays but underestimate the importance of starting their application preparation early. Having a clear timeline can help you manage different parts of the process more effectively.
For example, applicants typically need to plan for test preparation, school research, networking with current students and alumni, identifying recommenders, and preparing essays. Starting early allows you to approach each of these steps thoughtfully instead of rushing through them close to deadlines.
We recently discussed this topic and created a video explaining how applicants can structure their MBA application timeline and when they should ideally start preparing.
