LETTER FROM THE AUTHOR
Dear Reader,
I sincerely appreciate your willingness to dig in to the material found in this book, and earnestly hope that you will find it to be an all-inclusive guide to getting into HBS and enjoying the experience while you’re there. I believe you will find its contents thoughtful, personal, and unique, as it is the culmination of hundreds of hours spent reading applications, exploring blogs, going through the admission process myself, helping friends and clients with MBA and career pursuits, speaking with admissions officers, and observing the HBS admissions process play its cycle out over the last few years.
Please note that while I believe this to be the most comprehensive and helpful book on the market about HBS admissions and life on campus, it is distinctly not an “official†guide. All opinions expressed are my own, and if I’ve misstated or misconstrued anything in this book and eBook, the fault is also my own, and not that of HBS or my publishers.
Should you desire to contact me for individual consultation or just send a note my way, you can find my Expert profile on www.evisors.com, or send me an email at bschumacher@mba2011.hbs.edu.
Best of luck!
Very sincerely,
Ben Schumacher
