A former Dean of MBA Admissions on a mission of creating more MBA success stories:
Hi! I'm Petia Whitmore. For the last 15 years, MBA Admissions has been part of my life and career.
My journey started as an eager GMAT test taker and MBA candidate ready to take on the test and then the world. As an MBA student, I dreamed of entrepreneurship, leading an enterprise.

Welcome back after 2 months.
I know, I know! I will try harder to make videos more often - I have a lot to share with you all!
Well, when a post comes out that says I applied for 1500 jobs and could not get one that could make a young person feel hopeless and he hasn’t even entered college yet. So what encouragement would you give a young person to pursue a degree in business if that is the way that they’ve been thinking of going?
It's such an important question - and I know how overwhelming all the noise can be. Especially nowadays when layoffs and stories of unemployment dominate the online forums. My advice is to tune out the noise. I know exactly the article you are referring to and I believe the devil is in the details. The MBA is not some great equalizer that opens every single door you may want to knock on. At the heart of an MBA pursuit is a professional and personal goal. It all starts with your “why”. Here's how to think about this: www.mymbapath.com/insights/mba-application-where-do-you-start
Hey ma'am please make regular videos it's very helpful. And give us clarity on the GMAT and gre waivers. Students who get waiver are they in disadvantage? Or positive. And please make more video topics on general subjects Rather than school specific.
Hey petia, it's been a month and more Please make videos it's very helpful .
I'm working on one, I promise! MBA ABC (www.mymbapath.com/mba-application-boost-camp-enrollment) took a lot of my time the last month but I'm back to recording now. Is there a topic you want me to record a video on? You get to make your wish for speaking up!
No! MBA know nothing about run a business, they are just good at financial analysis and do powerpoint presentations! Experience is far important than an education degree.
@@Agent77X All well ranked MBAs require previous work experience.
thank you i am more reassured because i subscribed to an MBA due to start on this september, thank god it's not a mistake.
helpful as usual, thx Petia.
I’m so glad it was helpful!
Hey mam can you tell me how it work and in which country it provides job.
"Degrees, like laws, love, and most things that matter, have a price tag. Even a multimillionaire in Singapore, nearly dead, can buy an illegal kidney transplant and escape jail time, while the poor farmer who sold his kidney not only loses an organ but also faces years in prison and loses 500K SGD. If self-proclaimed 'zero corruption' Singapore can get away with such crimes, why can't US Ivy League do the same?" YOU CAN EVEN PAY SOMEONE TO ATTEND YOUR PERFECT ATTENDANCE AND EXAMS WITHOUT U COME TO CAMPUS (REAL FACTS DONE BY SPOILED CRAZY RICH ASIAN KIDS DURING THEIR STUDY IN USA FROM COLLEGE TO USC, UCLA, AND EVEN IVY LEAGUE.
Such a relevant subject. Thank you for addressing this Petia!!
Glad it's helpful!

MBA is one of the most reasonable options in terms of the return of investment.
True! For many young professionals, it's the most reasonable option to pivot to where they want to be in their career indeed!
Thanks for this Petia, this was wonderful!
You're so welcome!
