AoA Everyone,

For those who are interested in learning about how to apply to top-ranked MBA programs, there is a free event taking place in Karachi on September 28th. This event is organized by the University of Chicago, which is currently ranked #1 globally according to Businessweek and the Economist.

As an MBA alum, I'm helping the school to organize this in Karachi to create awarenesss about the somewhat complicated and lengthy process. We see too many Pakistanis apply to lower ranked business schools. Unlike engineering schools and other professions, the post-MBA income can be as high as 2-3 times depending upon if you got an MBA from a top 10 ranked business school versus any other school, as the opportunities available to a few prestigious business school graduates are somewhat uniquely available to them. Please see the information below. Feel free to forward this information to anyone who may be interested (either fresh graduates or people who have a work experience of up to 10 years of experience generally)

The details of the event are below:

Thank you!
Asim
