This is the Step-by-Step process that I used to get into my dream MBA program at Stanford with no prior connections. Though it can feel impossible to stand out among all of the other applicants, using these methods will make a HUGE difference during the application process and hopefully, get you into the school of your dreams :)
Specifically, I go through:
- How to Differentiate Your Resume
- How to Make Your Application Stand Out
- How to Write a Compelling Essay
- How to Prep for and Crush the Interview
This one is packed full of great info, so make sure to watch till the end!

Having just gone through a very stressful/unorganized application process but luckily been admitted to an M7 B School, I really wish this video existed before I started applying. Spot on content.

@KhloeK93 9 месяцев назад

This is one of the best and relatable "how to B school" videos I've seen on youtube! Thanks for the great content :) hopefully I can put the lessons into practice and hit you up for an informational alum interview when I start my application process

Another banger John!! So much value in a 12 minute vid. I’m grinding the GMAT now and hearing your experience with that makes me feel much better! It’s certainly a beast, but one that can be tamed! Still a few years away from applying, but excited to continue leveling up in both my traditional career (JPM IB) and unique side hustle (YT creator)!

@jayhoovy Год назад

Dude Cameron - you’re gonna be a shoe in if you keep working hard! Double down on the unique side hustle angle. This is exactly what Cherie Luo did!

@jayhoovy Год назад

Love to hear it Abby! Just take every possible GMAT practice test and I promise you’ll start to “learn” how to take the test. Excited to see you get in! I don’t have the best advice for financing as I’m just on student loans haha (still paying mine off 🤷🏻‍♂️)

@extremeguy967 9 месяцев назад

the vast majority of people will not be able to get above 700 on the GMAT, someone that's so gifted and has obviously studied a lot in his life to already be so fast and well prepared for the math etc. telling people that it's THAT easy... is like Usain Bolt telling you if you just practice a bit systematically you WILL hit the olympics... you are absolutely amazing at taking standardized tests my man you scored better than 99/100 dedicated people with a college degree from around the world.

@carolchen2320 7 месяцев назад

But most people are not people who apply to top tier business schools. I think for anyone who thrives in a competitive intellectual environment, the GMAT should be the least of their application worries

@akira3132 Год назад

Hey John! Just wondering what undergrad major do they like to see, I’m planning on doing finance with a emphasis in fintech which is just some classes from the CS curriculum with a heavy emphasis in python. Do you believe that is good?

@YyNRCyY 8 месяцев назад

This reminds me of a excerpt from "On writing the college application essay." You shouldn't be thinking of what they want from you. They don't discriminate, like john pointed out in this video. Go back to 4:00 and take a look at all the industries listed. They aren't looking at a rubric going, " well he's not cs", or, " I don't like that he's not in finance." It's a 'holistic' viewing of your story, your resume, your experience, and why you think that business school is right for you. :))) hope that helps
