Any tips on how to start and prepare my MBA Application? I don’t plan on applying till 2022 as I want to attend in 2023. What are things I can do to prepare now in order to have a strong application?Background: I’m aiming for HSW, M7, and top 15. I’m currently a Staff at EY within Business Consulting. I graduated from a Top 25 Business Undergrad - majoring in Finance and minor in Advertising with a 3.71 GPA. I want to pivot towards PM or Corporate Strategy in Tech, at Toyota, or Nike. TIA!

They promoted her on Friday and laid her off today? Damn that’s cold
I think OP got promoted but their mom was laid off.
Also, if they first promoted her, seems they were taking care of her - presumably better severance package etc. So that's the positive note you/she can appreciate!
Go to her, do dinners, spend time together, be part of her life!
Don’t hesitate. Use your points and fly home. You only have one mom. You will plenty of future projects and weekends
Sorry to hear OP. Is the severance enough to take her to retirement? Hoping for silver lining.
Happened to me during the recession. Sorry to hear it, OP. Hopefully you get a chance to give her a hug soon and everything works out okay
:(
Yes please do that! Will be totally worth it
Go hug her 🤗
Take her on a trip and get her a nice gift to do things that she enjoys during this time so she can see the positives of having more time: painting classes, yoga classes, mani/ pedi etc. She will enjoy these and see the silver lining of having more time for herself!
EY1 wot???
Lol EY1 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Well... If that's the case, the positivity I alluded to is lost a little... But OP - your mom will no doubt be thrilled to hear of your promotion!
She just needs a ton of positive vibes right now. Go give those to her!
WM, how dare you apply your hetero-normative view of what a family looks like onto OP's unique situation.
Fly home
Sorry to hear this :/.
