    Thanks for continuing to put this together. Been listening since the spring of 2024 when I first got interested in applying for business school. Currently in the military, looking to apply next fall. I’ll certainly be reaching out for application feedback when the time comes.

  • Great resources for prospective MBAs

    Graham and Alex have been in the business of MBA admissions for many years, on both the school side and the applicant advising side. This is not a comment on their age but a well deserved compliment of their deep knowledge in this space. As someone also in this space (on the school side), I can vouch that they provide very valuable advice for aspiring MBAs in this weekly podcast.

  • Informational and encouraging

    Love tuning in every Monday to Alex and Graham. I think you two do an awesome job keeping anxious MBA applicants looped in on the latest and greatest and providing pertinent advice to those who seek it. I’ve been listening religiously, and it’s become my comfort podcast during this stressful application/interview period. Also, you two are wonderful speakers and your thought processes are easy to follow. Cheers.

  • Thanks, Alex and Graham!

    I really look forward to tuning in every Monday to hear your advice. I hadn’t come across your wires/website before and just stumbled on the podcast a few months ago when feeling a bit stuck and unsure if an MBA felt right for me. I appreciate hearing ways in which individuals might be underestimating themselves or parts of their candidacy to fine tune further. Excited to submit my details on the wire once I have a GMAT score in a few weeks. Best of luck, everyone!

MBA Wire Taps 495: 335 GRE, Real Estate. 8.65 GPA, from India. Stern vs Johnson
Q: What about the second candidate with 13 schools on their list and a high GPA from India?
Graham/Alex note that the GPA is excellent and GMAT will be critical; they should clarify long-term goals and whether to delay application to build a more coherent narrative, possibly stacking experiences to align with top programs, and consider where they want to live post-MBA.

Q: What do you make of this candidate (the first WireTaps profile)?
The candidate has a strong technical background, leadership through nonprofit work, and a bold stance about applying widely, including Stanford, with a realistic appraisal of Wharton as a dream school; suggest focusing on a top-tier target list and leveraging Stanford's essay as a strategic entry point.
