Because most schools are very selective, they look at a variety of factors before making a decision. Before you are placed under their microscope, you will want to make sure that you are as prepared as you can possibly be.

When to apply
After you have made your decision to study in a business school, try to begin your application as soon as possible. Most business schools have either two or three application deadlines/rounds. Applying in the first round will increase your chances of admission, because there are more empty spots available.

Your GPA
Depending upon the school, an applicant’s GPA can be evaluated many different ways. The median GPA for applicants admitted into top schools is approximately 3.5. If your GPA is less than that, it doesn’t mean that you will be excluded from the school of your choice, it simply means that the rest of your application should make up for it. Make the best of what you have.

Your GMAT Score
The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) is a standardized exam used by business schools to assess how well students are likely to do in an MBA Program. The GMAT exam measures basic verbal, mathematical, and analytical writing skills. GMAT total scores range from 200 to 800. The majority of test takers score between 400 and 600. The median score for applicants admitted into top schools is 700.

Preparation for your recommendation letters
Recommendation letters are often used by students during college admissions or by jobseekers seeking employment. Many colleges prefer that applicants supply at least two letters of recommendation during the admissions process. If you want to truly enhance your application, recommendation letters should be written by someone who knows you very well.

Write your essays
When applying to business school, you may write as many as seven essays ranging between 2,000 and 4,000 words. Essays are your opportunity to convince your school of choice that you are the right pick for their program.

Writing an application essay is no easy feat. It takes time and hard work, but it’s well worth the effort. A good essay will compliment your application and set you apart from other applicants.

Preparation for your interview
Depending upon the business school, interview procedures will vary. In some cases, all applicants are required to interview. In other cases, applicants are only allowed to interview by invitation only. Preparing for your interview is just as important as preparing for the GMAT.
