- In an increasingly competitive job market, the MBA stands out as one of the best ways for candidates to distinguish themselves. However, MBA programs themselves are quite competitive, with several years of work experience being one of many requirements for admission.
Today I’ll be sharing some of the strategies I used in gaining admission to the top-ranked University of Chicago Booth School of Business - despite coming from a non-traditional background, lacking university connections, and not having worked at a company with more than 50 employees. I also share some strategies that you can apply in your situation to become more competitive for top programs, whether you’re looking at Booth or elsewhere.

4 weeks of study for the GMAT and you got a 730?? That is INSANE!
Hey Alex! I would love to pursue an MBA in the next few years. Your videos are always so helpful getting me to think about about all of the moving pieces that need to come together prior to applying. As a Chicago resident, I really like the Booth specific content. This video in particular is reassuring to me as someone who also has a non-traditional background and how that can play as a strength. Thank you!
No problem. Definitely stop by for a visit as a prospective student to see more of the campus and take a session of class if you have the time!
Thanks Alex! Definitely going to use this as I think about going to business school. Thanks for the versatile videos. What can't you do!?
You'll have to tell me once you're crushing it in school!
Awesome content
Thank you!
Hi. Do you think I have a shot as an international student with a honors in actuarial sciences plus 6+ year of high quality work experience at insurance companies
Hi, your videos are so inspirational. Listening to this particularly video is so relieving. I’m currently on Booth’s waitlist. I would love to connect with you outside this platform if that ok by you.
Appreciate
