Applying to business school can be daunting for a variety of reasons:

• The process should start many years before you submit an actual application
• Admission partially hinges on your performance on one 3-4 hour long GMAT exam
• The process requires you to showcase your skills, capabilities, and “personal story” via your essays in a way that is not natural for many people
• Once you actually start writing your essays, the revision process can be exhausting
• You’re evaluated against a pretty long list of factors (which can vary by school)
• It is just very competitive (at the top schools)

However, MyGuru’s three founders have navigated the process themselves and interacted with and advised hundreds of others on the process – we even host a podcast on I-Tunes – MyGuru’s MBA Admissions Podcast.  While we don’t directly offer admissions consulting services through MyGuru, we’ve partnered with several other firms that offer extremely high quality yet affordable admissions help.
