Your career goals are what help  you decide which schools are the right fit for you, and they help the  schools decide if you&#39;re the right fit for them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here&#39;s how to do it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Start with the future. &lt;/strong&gt;What do you want to do with  your life? Do you want to be a CEO someday? Do you want to run your own  business? Are you going to move to some other country and start  something new? Great! Write that down.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Next: Recognize that this is &lt;em&gt;not&amp;nbsp; &lt;/em&gt;your &amp;ldquo;long-term goal.&amp;rdquo; &lt;/strong&gt;Most  schools have a five- to eight-year post-MBA timeframe in mind when they  ask about your &amp;ldquo;long-term goal.&amp;rdquo; So, if you&#39;re applying to bschool this  fall (2011), in order to start school next fall (2012), you&#39;ll be in  the Class of 2014 (hopefully!!). This puts your long-term goal in the  realm of, like, the year 2020.&amp;nbsp; Don&#39;t have a clue what you&#39;ll be doing  in the year 2020?&amp;nbsp; Don&#39;t worry about it, we&#39;ll circle back to that again  in a minute. &lt;strong&gt;READ MORE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
