#304 - A Deep (Really Deep) Dive Into MBA Applications

from Business Beyond Usual

From resumés and admissions essays to recommendation letters and interviews, the application process for MBA programs is a gauntlet. There’s a lot of advice out there about how to navigate it and put your best foot forward, but the real experts are the ones making the final decisions. So in this episode, we ask those very experts the questions that really matter. Leslie Chang sits down with the leaders of the MBA admissions committee at Michigan Ross to take a deep dive into the MBA application. They have an open and honest discussion about what stands out in applications (the good and the bad), and how the best thing you can do in your app materials is perhaps the most controversial thing of all: Be vulnerable and tell the truth.
