Me! Not even kidding. I’m not an “official” MBA admissions consultant, whatever that means, but I’ve helped dozens of candidates and just graduated from a top program. More than happy to give you more insights in an hour long call than whatever these “consultants” provide.

I was just informed after the third round of interviews they’d like at least 5 references, two must be supervisors. My last job was a temporary remote job where I didn’t really interact with my supervisor and the jobs before that were at my family’s business (I do not speak to any of them for serious personal reasons.) Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕
