Definitely not an ideal situation to be virtual. I was able to have great individual conversations with ADs and that helped with my applications this past year.
However, it is still worth going to because there will be workshops on how to approach each part of the application and school-specific content. Remember to send a note to ADs afterwards and follow up later on in your application process. Good luck if you are applying this year!
Thanks! I’m taking the GMAT a couple of days after this — but sounds like I should save some time to attend.
I went to the live Grad School Symposium last year and am headed to an M7 this year. In my opinion, the Symposium was not very valuable. Sure there were some sessions that were more useful than others, but nothing I learned contributed to my apps in any significant way. My biggest takeaway from the event was I needed to start moving fast if I wanted to submit R1.
The idea that I had a meaningful-enough conversation with an AD that they remembered me is unrealistic. I’m sure maybe 5 people are remembered by each AD, but that’s never going to be me.
Wondering the same! I have a hard time paying attention on zoom meetings that go over an hour. Not thrilled about two full days over zoom and cutting into my weekend time.
Helped me weed out schools last year. Totally did not vibe with the Wharton AD / alumna so crossed it off my list. Had a great conversation with the CBS AD and followed up via email a few times. She ultimately called me when I was accepted.
