Thank you Yashika! I feel that we should start providing a "Yashika Award" or something along those lines as you have been a very active and engaged participant of every single one of these fairs!

yashikaaggarwal · Answer

I am blushing. 🙈
But thank you for even thinking about naming any award after my name.
I am more than happy to be part of the GMAT Club. ❤

Oops. Someone just told me that the mobile version of the Registration portal was missing school logos/sessions and they could not registered.
It seems it was a glitch and we fixed it. You should now be able to register on mobile devices as well

anupamas44 · Answer

I could see the logos of the colleges Schulich and Wharton but not able to see the names under the registration portal.

Kindly let me know how to proceed further.

Thanks!

It's working fine for me. You just have to click the blue speaker tab, then select the school you want to interact with, click register, and fill in the essentials. You are registered.

bb · Answer

FYI - I don’t have yet a confirmation about the time for the Wharton and Schulich sessions so they are not on the schedule yet. We have 41 sessions on the schedule so far and I’ll keep adding them as we lock in the time.

Hey  bb ,
Really excited for the upcoming MBA Spotlight. 
The new format looks amazing, eagerly awaiting the schedule of the YouTube events.
Happy to take part in the sessions and ready for volunteering too.
Do let me know if you need me for anything.

bb · Answer

Thank you so much! We have a few opportunities to engage with AdComs and sign up to Moderate Zoom room discussions. You would talk to the AdCom in advance via email about their preferences/logistics, then login to the Zoom session early and then do the intro for the AdCom and depending on their preferences and your discussion with them, potentially moderate the discussion and questions in the Zoom. If you are interested, you can sign up here: https://gmatclub.com/forum/zoom-session ... l#p3015846

bb ,

I already have registered on the link.

vmmMBA · Answer

bb  how long is each session? I've registered for multiple schools on the same day, but I'm wondering if there's any overlap between sessions.

bb · Answer

Thanks! Good question. 
 Each session will be 45 mins . You may need to choose strategically which one you will attend on June 13 and which ones on June 14th.
You should be able to find all of the sessions available on both days (with exception of Stern that had a scheduling issue) to give an opportunity to attend multiple sessions and mitigate some of the conflicts.

vmmMBA · Answer

Oh damn! I do have some overlapping sessions then. How do I unregister from sessions then (to open up seats for others)?

Posted from my mobile device

bb · Answer

Thank you. That’s very considerate of you. I think you can cancel it in the zoom. Look for your zoom email and I think that has an option to cancel you.

I’m not sure if that will have an impact on GMAT Club registration but that doesn’t really matter too much since zoom registration is what is determining capacity.

So use your confirmation email to cancel and if you cannot for some reason, let me know and I will remove you from the session you want to skip.

PS. You can also be late or leave early in some cases just FYI.

vmmMBA · Answer

Yup! Just canceled the overlapping ones via the mail invite! Shortlisted 9 schools to attend without any clash! Thanks  bb

bb · Answer

Wow! 👍 awesome.

I feel it will be another interesting year with so many different trends and patterns colliding. For the last two years we’ve seen fewer people take the GMAT in the US and then now there is the economy shuffling and recession talk. Things are all over the place

vmmMBA · Answer

You thing there will be an application surge this year just like it was in 2020? (Because of the recession/job loss)

Hi  bb ,

I am unable to see Darden or UNC in the registration section. Is it because they've been completely registered or they're not participating?

Posted from my mobile device

bb · Answer

I was expecting an application decline three weeks ago. I think it’s a little too early to expect a surge. I think a surge would be unlikely in my opinion. I think we would need to face a pretty significant downturn with actual layoffs. It takes time for people to decide to pursue an MBA. I feel that almost under all scenarios there will be a decline in round one applications.
