Percept Research, the leading provider of MBA student and alumni satisfaction assessments for business schools worldwide, is pleased to announce a significant update to the firm’s popular MBA Student Exit Survey.
The questionnaire for the 2013-14 fielding year has been revised to reduce the overall interview length for graduating students while adjusting the managerially-actionable metrics to help guide business schools in their continuous improvement efforts.
