A note to other first-year MBA students anxious about starting their programs this fall:
Found an interesting program designed to help first-year MBA students hit the ground running and get the most out of their two years in business school—MBA LaunchPad (www.mbalaunchpad.com). Unlike many pre-MBA programs I've researched and those offered by many schools (mine included), it looks like this one will not just hone relevant skill sets but will address general success strategies offered by b-school professors, leaders in the business community and recent grads. Sounds like a neat learning/networking experience (besides the humidity in NYC)—will check back in with a review after the event and let you know if it's worth it.
