Hello Everyone,

I am applying to UBC Sauder full-time MBA program. I had a query with regards to the recommendation letters. I am an entrepreneur and have been managing my start-up for the past 2 years. In my case, who would be an ideal referee? Would a recommendation from a client and another from a partner be accepted? Your feedback is highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Abhisu30,

you can choose anyone as a referee who has interacted with you quite often in a professional setup and can therefore talk about your professional capabilities. I think the referees you mentioned should be accepted. I have heard of candidates using their clients as referees. However, to be absolutely sure shoot an email to the adcom. They will be more than happy to help you out.

Hello Prateek,

The interview focused very much on the career prospect, if you have identified what you want to do and what you want to be. Also, typical questions as why MBA, why Sauder, why Vancouver and behavioral questions on your team work, leadership, strengths and weakness.

Good luck.

Hi Guys,

Nice to see everyone's comments here. Had a quick question:

Do TOEFL scores need to be sent for UG students from IITs from India?

Hey Guys,

Do you guys have any tips for the video question about transformational journey during time at Sauders? Since, there was already a question about how to make most of my time Sauders, I wans't sure how to differentiate the answer for this one from that.
