Actually, I want to know how the process works. How exactly do people network in. It is because I know a bunch of professors and students at this nearby bschool, but don't exactly know how to leverage those connections to get in.

AmbaniSo I read this article ''Secrets of getting into a business school." I was wondering how do people network their way in a business school? Can anyone elaborate on this?

Just network everywhere. Network at a gym. Network at a night club. Network at a wedding. Network at funerals.

 

I am sorry if my question is not clear. I already know a bunch of professors and students at this nearby school. I have already done a decent amount of networking.

My question is, how can I leverage those connections to get in...

Connections as in being George Bush.

Look you are what, a sophomore or a junior? You need to chill out with all the hypothetical stuff you coming up with for last few days. MBA, MM vs. Boutique, PWM IT, IB Pre/Post MBA, networking - it's just all over the map and not a good use of you or anyone else's time. Do one step at a time, and don't go bonkers trying to look forward 6-8 years out.

 

None of these were "hypothetical"--except the one where I specifically say it being hypothetical. But I totally see where this is coming from. Appreciate the heads up!
