Many moons ago I was on GSPC and led the planning of symposium. There’s a ton of GSAPers that attend and only so many schools, not every session will be your top preference. We do take attendance in every session so don’t skip your lower priority schools. 1) symposium is a perk for you, but you’re still a representative of Deloitte and full rooms for adcoms matter 2) no matter if the school is a top choice or not, there’s always a nugget an adcom can share with you that’s school agnostic 3) the more stories you hear the more you’ll get a perspective on the flow that all schools look for, the secret is there is no secret. All schools have a similar formula for admissions. Source: in at several M7s as a white male from the Midwest with a 700GMAT
I got the ones I wanted, but I was pretty aggressive about weighting my choices to the ones I thought more people would go after that I also wanted. I also think I have some less popular schools on my list though
Same. I made sure to have the top 2 target schools have a high score valuation
How does the weight of the info session differ from coffee chats?
If you truly feel like your submitted survey was not reflected in your schedule, you can reach out to the planning team. The above is correct though, there are only so many sessions and also people weight certain schools VERY heavily, so if you didn’t put 50/100 points for your top schools, that’s why.
Do Adcoms come to the symposium? I’m a noob here and gonna apply next year so would love to have any insights
Yep!
Do adcoms track presence?
Attendance to sessions is tracked yes
When did everyone get their agendas??
Friday - if you didn’t get one, email the leads
