Stacy,
I have been out of college for 5+ years and recently decided that business school was for me. While in college most of my classes were fairly large 30 or so students for the smallest of classes, and many of my classes were held in large lecture halls with hundreds of students. I never really made an effort for the professors to get to know me as a student.
Now, I am realizing that many MBA programs want professional references, as well as educational references. Since I'm several years out of school, and I never really had a great relationship with any of my professors, what can I do about an educational reference? There is no possible way any of my teachers remember me. What do you suggest I do? I can't possibly the only one with this problem, can I? Would having a few professional references minimize the need for the educational reference?
I appreciate your time in advance. Thank you.
