Not sure why you’d want people your age. You should want a diverse range for more experiences. Average age at most schools is 27/28. 1-2 year difference isn’t exactly big..

Anyone have advice for talking to teachers in your school that are upset with you?

Why does MIT Sloan admissions suck so much? Is their EMBA program really second grade as some people suggest? Is that why they don't give rats arse about responding to potential candidates' queries?
