Today I got a message from Sergio, an applicant, asking a very Spanish centric question about the application process. (Due to its nature, I believe the question is not relevant to most applicants, so I will not copy my answer here)

However, this just serves to illustrate that quite often, through the contact page, I get plenty of questions from applicants.

In general terms, I am truly happy to help applicants that contact me. I am in debt to all those friends that helped me through my process, and the best thing to do is to pay it forward. If it’s something I can help, and I have a minimum of bandwidth, I am happy to oblige. Keep in mind, though, that crafting messages according to what The Divine Miss N says in “The 5 things you should know” increases dramatically your chances of success.

And this is a post to all my audience that has ever found something useful here: When you become  a student of a “Master of the Universe in Ham & Cheese Sandwiches” (a.k.a. MBA), please remember when you were an anxious applicant, and do your best to help others. It really means a lot to someone else, and it will make you feel good about yourself.

So, in short, if you use something from this blog, please pay it forward to another applicant.
