One thing I would note is that an MBA is not like a typical masters. You don't do it because you're unsure what you want to do with your career. Especially at such a stage in your life, straight from college, the onus is even heavier on you to prove that you know what you want to get from an MBA, and how it will help you in your career.
With regards to what others have written about those coming straight from college not being able to contribute to class, what someone contributes to class is a combination of many things, including their experiences both during college and before, and your ability as a student. Someone may have incredible experiences, but refuse to speak in class- for instance. In general, it is up to any individual- regardless of what stage you're in in your career- to prove that you can contribute to an MBA environment.
Hi, Jason! I read your bio and think that your amazing personal combination of diverse cultures and stella performance in academics makes you qualify and also a good contribution to Wharton/Lauder. I was in a research workshop by Lauder Institute's director and professor Theresa Jen 3 years ago when she came to China. And I got the information that getting into Wharton/Lauder is extremely difficult, and virtually impossible if you want to get in directly from College. So your case might not be so typical. |
