MBA Survival Guide: 3 Tips for Your First Day
Pursuing an MBA is an incredible journey and a gateway to furthering your career—but how do you make the most of your time? Over the next month, we’ll walk you through some of our favorite tips.
This week, we wanted to start from the beginning: the first day of classes. Here are three tips for making the most of your first day.
(1) Know Where You’re Going: This seems simple, but for many students it is their first-time stepping foot in their new home. We recommend you visit your classrooms a day early so you don’t risk getting lost.
(2) Do the Reading: Not all courses have readings or assignments for the first day, but if they do, you certainly don’t want to miss them. Check over your syllabus carefully to make sure you’re fully prepared for the first day of classes.
(3) Introduce Yourself: One of the greatest value adds of a top MBA program is the professional network you can build. From esteemed professors to talented fellow students, you should make an effort to get to know your class and faculty.
