Congratulations on the completion of your GMAT journey. If you thought GMAT preparation was difficult and agonizing, then be prepared to experience the bschool application process. In many ways, it is more stressful and painful than the entire GMAT preparation process.

First thing is first. If you would like professional opinion on your application profile and other admissions process, visit the Admission Consultants sub-forum.



If you would like assessment from fellow GMATClub members, then enter the Business Applications Forum and post your profile in the Peer Review sub-forum.



Otherwise, enter one of the two Business Applications forum



1) The B-School Application - This forum is for US and Canada schools in general (both FT and PT)

2) The B-School Application - Asia, Australia and Europe - This forum is for International schools outside the US



3) Ph.D in Business - This forum is for applicants interested in PHD, MS Accounting, or MS Financial Engineering programs.



4) Business School Reviews - If you want information related to bschool life, then look for the information here.

Here are few of many unique features at Gclub:

* Every application year, each bschool has a thread in Business Applications forum. In the front page of that thread (i.e. "Calling All Fall 2009 Chicago Booth Applicants")

This forum is a community where all members share bschool related info, agony, doubts, celebration, and etc. Year after year, each bschool application class graduates GMATclub with plenty of friends.

* Part Time MBA Programs - If you are applying to a PT program, post your information here and share your story with fellow PT applicants.

* Ask B-School Ambassadors - This is one of the best features in the forum. If you have questions, current bschool students will answer all your questions. There's tons of info already in this forum, so make sure you browse through before posting.

* Chatroom - Many members became very close while spending all their work hours in this chatroom during the bschool application year. You can meet and talk to fellow applicants, current students and other random individuals. This chatroom is so addictive that your work productivity might suffer.
