<p><strong><i>What have you been told about applying to business school? With the advent of chat rooms, blogs and forums, armchair “experts” often unintentionally propagate MBA admissions myths, which can linger and undermine an applicant’s confidence. Some applicants are led to believe that schools want a specific “type” of candidate and expect certain GMAT scores and GPAs, for example. Others are led to believe that they need to know alumni from their target schools and/or get a letter of reference from the CEO of their firm in order to get in. In this series, <a href="https://www.mbamission.com/" target="_blank">mbaMission</a> </i><i>debunks these and other myths and strives to take the anxiety out of the admissions process.</i></strong></p>
<hr />
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After submitting your MBA application, you endure weeks of nervous anticipation before ideally being invited to interview. You then start to prepare for the interview, ready to prove yourself to the admissions committee. You take your tour, sit in on a class, and head to the Admissions Office only to find—gasp!—a second-year MBA student waiting to interview you! You think, “This school must not take me seriously as a candidate. I must be in some second tier that it really does not care about!” If you encounter this situation, take a deep breath and reconsider.</span><span id="more-13193"></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is the admissions committee’s job? Quite simply, the committee strives to find the best candidates for its program. So whether you interview with a member of the committee, an alumnus/alumna, or a student, your interview will be considered equally. Why would an admissions committee put a huge group of candidates at a disadvantage? What would be the point of interviewing an applicant if the admissions committee did not consider its school’s alumni reliable interviewers? Why would the committee solicit the help of students if it sincerely believed those individuals were not capable of rendering an appropriate judgment?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All this is to say that if you find yourself on campus and being interviewed by someone other than an admissions committee member, do not worry. Maintain your focus, and remember that your story and your ability to connect with your interviewer are what truly matter in your interview. ?</span></p>
