The Biggest Mistake in Your MBA Essay

Did you know that one mistake ruins more MBA applications than any other? I'm Ellen and I share all the best tips you need to get into a top MBA program all the time. I see applicants send MBA admissions essays that simply retell their cv, rather than bringing interesting and compelling stories that show off their personal achievements and professional success. So when preparing your application, remember the admissions committee already has your resume. Your goal with your application is to show what else. Plus, reading your CV in narrative form is pretty boring. Instead, what you want to do is pick a of well chosen stories that align with your personal brand your goals, and show off what makes you interesting and different from your competitors by demonstrating how you'll make unique contributions to the diversity of the class. You've already beat out thousands of your competitors, and that's a secret worth sharing.
