For readers planning on applying to HBS this fall, we wanted to point out that Harvard Business School’s application for the 2007-2008 application year has just been posted to the school’s website; even though their website claims the application will be available in early July, applicants simply need to login to the available application. Here are Harvard’s essays for the upcoming application cycle:
1. What are your three most substantial accomplishments and why do you view them as such? (600-word limit)
2. What have you learned from a mistake? (400-word limit)
3. Please respond to three of the following (400-word limit each):
a. Discuss a defining experience in your leadership development. How did this experience highlight your strengths and weaknesses?
b. How have you experienced culture shock?
c. What would you like the MBA Admissions Board to know about your undergraduate academic experience?
d. What is your career vision and why is this choice meaningful to you?
e. What global issue is most important to you and why?
f. What else would you like the MBA Admissions Board to understand about you?
