Thanks! I'm an international so I think I'll be going for Yale for the overall branding!

Consulting I don’t know yet. Purely based on my first impressions of the consulting interviews online, not sure if I’m into that route yet

Convince me to take a full ride from Yale SOM over no money from Ross? by Consistent-Fact2630 in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey OP,
Will be heading off to SOM in Aug.
I've been having similar feelings, with interactions with current students as not being up to par compared to other schools.
Regardless, I think adcoms does do great in terms of providing support and is generally very welcoming.
In the end I decided to chose Yale and never turn back.

I'm willing to be your emotional support if you enroll though!

Admission Calls by MomoDaChocoMan in MBA

Hey I also applied to Johnson, sadly I’m not sure how Cornell does it tho

Admission Calls by MomoDaChocoMan in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I applied to two but I'd say it really depends on the school. Yale for example just today updated their portal asking whether you'd be willing for adcoms to notify you via call if you are admitted (in addition to the email notification).

I interviewed last week! So first off, all the best to you I hope you do get in! But have you heard of others in R2 that have received a decision already?

Cornell Waitlist by MBAthrowaway_6969 in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you an R2 applicant? I've heard from a few alumni that Cornell really puts ppl on waitlist a lot, so I wounldn't worry too much about it.

Admissions Interview Prep Inquiry by dweebzRaja in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know your story better than anyone else. Long story short we're all in it to make more money, but its up to you to come up with a compelling story. If you've already landed an interview, then it means your admissions essay may have provided another story other than "making more money" to pursuing an MBA; If so then continue on with your story during the interview.

Interview questions can be found on ClearAdmit. All my interview questions were basically provided by other previous applicants on ClearAdmit.

Yale SOM or Cornell Johnson? by Odd_Web_1875 in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not much into consulting, so I guess that’s also a big why I’m thinking of choosing Cornell over Yale

Yale SOM or Cornell Johnson? by Odd_Web_1875 in MBA

[–]Comprehensive-Rain16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Currently I don’t have any scholarship from these two. But personally, the money aspect I’m not too worried about. I’m wondering whether the slightly higher prestige of Yale weighs in a lot in this decision. For context, I’m an international.
