Congrats buddy. Sloan is one of my top two choices, and is an amazing program.

I have a quick question for you - how did you balance the tech goals vs. business goals on your application and essays?

I ask because I'm an engineer with heavy tech background, and my dream is to get into technology management with high a level technology and be able to be on both sides of the technology/business line. Is this something you discussed in your application? And if so, did you talk more about your business goals, technology goals, or both?

Thank you.

Hi Oslo,

I think you should mention that you are interested in the business of technology.

However, remember that you are applying for a MBA program - so discussing tech is a waste of application space !

Hey abhi! congrats!
just wanted to know if it helps getting in touch with an admission consultant or is just a waist? my requirements are a little specific, like I am a doctor from India and 36 in age and would like to go for concentration in healthcare.

thanks in advance.

Congratulations on your admission to Sloan! It's great to hear of your success, and your willingness to offer help to others!

I hope you'll return to the forums once you are a student in the program and share your student perspective with others here! That would be very valuable!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
