We will not accept the new GMAT Focus exam as it will not be available until after this year’s Round 1 deadline. As a reminder, test scores are valid for five years from the test date, so rest assured that your scores from the traditional GMAT exam will continue to be accepted into the future. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UCnbzKuG2q8 Harvard-Business-School-768x432.jpg

I'm not an expert, but my motto has been rather than me saying no to myself, I'd rather have them say it. What I've been told is that almost everyone, regardless of their score or background, will be denied - which is a given since it's extremely competitive.

Hey, anyone here who has attended the HBS application help sessions?

Join us LIVE on YouTube with Guido, a Fintech professional from Argentina who got into four prestigious MBA programs: Harvard, Stanford GSB, MIT Sloan, and Yale SOM. In this interview, Maria Wich-Vila (HBS Alum and Founder of Applicant Lab) will try to understand his motivations for MBA, what makes his story unique, what contributed to his success, and how he approached essays, resume, recommendations, interviews etc. ✅ Session Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-tQKWINYcg
