Episode 187: Wire Taps—Aiming High Enough and Putting Your Best Foot Forward

Clear Admit MBA Admissions Podcast

Alex and Graham kick off this week's episode with some talk of Yale interview invites and a breakdown of Columbia's Class of 2023 profile. They also remind listeners about a new social tool on the site that is not yet fully live, but is looking for users to test drive: www.cleradmit.com/rankingswire (try it!). In terms of the candidates profiled, two themes emerge this week: the importance of putting your absolute best foot forward - even if that means sitting an exam (again), and the need for candidates to aim high and leave nothing on the table, so to speak. This week's cast of characters include a Brazilian female with amazing experience but some GPA concerns, an African American male with highly differentiated work experience but questions about his GRE results, and a healthcare IT professional who is hoping to secure a GMAT waiver...but may be at a disadvantage as a result. This episode was recorded in Cornwall, England and Paris, France. It was produced by the tireless Dennis Crowley in the City of Brotherly Love. Please remember to rate and review the show wherever you listen, and to tell everyone you know that WireTaps is the best podcast you have ever encountered! Or at least that you like it.
