How much did the # of applications for B-schools fall this year?
Just wondering what the application trend is for the past year. Seems like ever since the record levels we've seen in 08-09 apps have been falling about 10% each year. The usual MBA forums seem to be a lot less active than before.
My guess is that many people probably decided not to take a risk by leaving their current jobs, or perhaps didnt want to get into an additional 150K+ of school debt in an unpredictable environment.
For those that are set on B-school it may not be a bad time to apply as admissions rates are probably going to be up this year.
What are everyone's thoughts?
2013 or 2014 for me, swim against the current. When less people are hiding in grad school, there's less competition to get in. Applying in 2008/9 must have been brutal.
