The Golden Triangle of MBA applications
I received an email from Luis Duran from Mexico, an applicant and hopefully future student, asking for advise on getting accepted into the 海角社区 MBA programme.
I asked what my classmates thought. The general opinion is that the GMAT score is important but being a well rounded candidate is also important.
