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!

Pros: Free food and drinks. Cons: Having to socialize with people I'd prefer not having to interact with outside of work hours.

Nothing wrong with free food!!!
They're a (theoretically) good way to get to know your coworkers outside of the stuffy confines of the office. The con to this is that more often than not, I don't really want to get to know my coworkers outside of the office. I'm fine with us just being work acquaintances and don't need to be chummy to maintain a good working relationship.

I feel as though having these social events are just a way to feel like we aren’t just a number and to share memories with your teammates.
Pros are they can help you build relationships with coworkers. You know, get you into a more relaxed environment. Cons are that they're time consuming. You could be working or taking care of personal things. Instead you're seeing people you already see every day.
