The Resources I Used (a work in progress)
Blogs I read regularly:
-

An excellent website featuring quality articles on business schools.

r/mba I joined reddit just to have access to the wonderful questions posted here.

Interview guides, profiles and articles on all major MBA programs.
-
-

A forum for those interested in finance careers.

GMAT resources:

The self-study GMAT resource I used.
-
-
-
The forum which has EVERYTHING. Answers to official GMAT guide questions, GMAT questions of all levels created by users, forums to discuss business school applications and life. NOTE: many people are critical because they believe the majority of participants are Indian MBA candidates and thus their experience is not applicable, but I vehemently disagree. Everything I have read has been extremely helpful.

Other Resources for scholarships and fellowships:
