Networking with adcoms for that schools that care about this was huge. It was an also a nice break away from work! Pro tip, don’t waste your time at the schools everyone bids on (i.e HBS etc.). One because these schools don’t care much about interest anyways, but more importantly, you can focus on your backups that will get less interest. I remember being only 1 of 3-4 people at LBS session, and ended up getting in with 50% scholarship. Same with Tuck, Yale(slightly more people), and a few more schools.

Helpful! Thanks!

Networking with AdComs, showing interest to your top programs, and meeting potential classmates.

Agree with D1, focus on really making good impressions on the one or two schools you are seriously targeting/want to attend. My AdCom interviewer remembered me from symposium, which I think definitely helped with my admit.
