Ask an MBA Admissions Consultant

Seeing so many people striving to get enrolled in topmost business schools has always made me ask myself: Is it really important to have the degree from the best business schools in order to achieve success in a career? In fact, as far as I remember, almost half of successful famous people didn't graduate from the best schools. And vice versa: not all of those graduated from best schools are now on top positions. What is it after all: set of personal skills then that play a crucial part in one's career? Luck?
