Trying to figure out where I stand

[immaculate02]

Hello Stacy/Amy,
I am considering applying to some of the top 10 MBA schools for Finance or Management program, especially something with an international focus. This may sound vague or all encompassing, since I am still in the process of nailing down the exact program.

I am trying to weigh my chances of getting into any top 10 program. Any input will be greatly appreciated. I will also like to know what is the process for availing your services through stacyblackman.com, specifically, I will like to understand the process for comprehensive and hourly services.
tHanks!

Hi immaculate02,

I would focus on gaining some additional volunteer work, especially anything that will give you a strong leadership role and expose you to people outside GE. I would also spend some time very clearly articulating your goals. Why do you need an MBA in addition to the MS you are in the process of completing? Etc.

Please contact the office to schedule a time for someone to talk to you about Stacy Blackman Consulting services - either through email at [email protected] or by phone at 866.667.8229.

Good luck!

Amy
