Come learn from Oba (@Obatried), who got into Stanford's deferred MBA program as a first-generation college student who didn't know what a deferred MBA was until junior year.
You're invited to a focused 90 min virtual session designed to help college seniors break into top deferred MBA programs (Stanford, Harvard, Wharton) with the one thing that actually differentiates you.
The problem: Everyone applying has a 3.8 GPA, good internships, and leadership roles. So how do you stand out?
The solution: Finding your spike.
We'll cover:
The "connecting dots" exercise to find your unique thread
Real examples of winning spikes vs generic ones that sound like everyone else
How to position your background strategically
Common spike mistakes that kill your chances
Live Q&A to get your specific questions answered
Why NOW :You can't write compelling essays without knowing your core differentiation first.
Walk away with clarity on what makes YOU different and how to weave it through your entire application.
