    If you're preparing for an MBA application and need to study for the GMAT, I highly recommend Target Test Prep (TTP)! I can't stress enough how much TTP helped me with my GMAT studies and it's the main resource that helped me get a 750 after a few months of study. You can try them out for just $1 using my link below!

    Hi Ben, I LOVE what you're doing with documenting your journey and sharing your MBA experience. I got inspired to start documenting mine on my channel when I was already in my second year and it has been totally worth it! Apparently there are not too many MBA creators out here on CZcams for people to learn from so keep doing what you're doing. All the best at Wharton!

    you pointing out to the light and sound just makes us notice them unconsciously and it doesn't help

      even if it were possible, it's not really worth it. and chances to get into mba without work experience are very slim and you'll likely end up at a worse program than if you had experience

    Hey, I'm a medical doctor in Indonesia and thinking of getting an MBA in wharton, particularly the healthcare management major. Can you please give us insight about the healthcare management major? I have been trying to look for insights from students, i have been trying to reach people on linkedin, but didn't get any feedback. It would really help me and maybe other people who are also interested in the same thing. Thank you so much! great video, and i hope you enjoy wharton!

      @@rareliquidcareers I understand but you can do entreprenuership without needing a MBA from top school. People will already be impressed with undergrad and analyst in investment banking. Better to either skip grad school, only do if been paid or if need for new corporate role. Investors will not care - they invest in any good idea regardless.
