The Kick-Start!

Okay guys.
We have finally secured our MBA admission! The MBA journey had started around the same time last year. As we enter into our MBA programs, we thought it would be a good idea to share our experiences on the huge, terrifying, exhausting MBA Process.! (Kidding!)

A quick introduction of the contributers to this blog.
1. Ecolectric, Tuck School of Business, Class of 2011- 3 yrs of work experience in the Retail industry. DU, JNU grad. Admits from ISB & Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth.
2. Powerpunch, Yale School of Management, Class of 2011- 3 yrs of work experience in the Telecom Industry. IIT grad. Admits from Yale School of Management & Fuqua School of Business.

We plan to start with what most MBA aspirants are presently doing- the GMAT! I do believe that the gmat score saves and applicant from elimination without guaranteeing selection. And on top of it, if one is competing within the Indian pool, a high GMAT Score is a must. The Indian pool as far as I know is by far competitive and anything less than 700 might be frowned upon. It is surprising how the GMAT is so crucial and how it loses it's significance gradually as we move further in the application process.

This colleague in my office screwed up his gmat with a 680. Have strongly recommended him rewriting the gmat in Early August with a full on power punch preparation.!

Cheers!
