Este hilo se inicia para que los que estamos pensando en solicitar admisión a un MBA durante el periodo 2013 - 2014 podamos intercambiar ideas, opiniones, consejos, en definitiva, nuestras experiencias en este largo y duro proceso que constituye una aplicación a un MBA.
Participar en este hilo nos ayudaría a conocernos más (¡puede que algunos de nosotros seamos compañeros el año que viene!) y a estar más enterados de las últimas noticias de las Escuelas de Negocio, como por ejemplo: cuando empiezan a llamar a entrevistas, cuando empiezan a llegar los primeros "admits" o "dings", etc.
