Posted in:  Fridays from the Frontline , General , School: Chicago , School: Dartmouth / Tuck , School: Duke / Fuqua , School: Georgetown , School: Harvard , School: INSEAD , School: London Business School , School: Michigan / Ross , School: NYU Stern , School: UCLA / Anderson Welcome to our weekly summary of the new and noteworthy posts from the MBA blogosphere. As to be expected at this time of year, applicant bloggers have been ramping up their application efforts in the past week, while new and returning student bloggers are finishing up their summers and settling in at school. Let’s take a closer look….
On the MBA applicant front, congratulations go out to Achilles, who rocked the GMAT on Tuesday, and to BlueTulip for earning herself an INSEAD interview! Agent-C was confident and optimistic, having straightened out a glitch in his GMAT scores just before deploying to the Middle East for six months. Meanwhile, mbabound08 shared some candid thoughts about an HBS information session she attended, while Bschool Diva revisited her list of target schools.
As for first year student bloggers, there were plenty of exciting new beginnings this week. RusGirl has been maxing out on her blogger connections, having moved into Angel Angie’s old flat and joining a study group of no less than three other LBS bloggers. Taking a brief respite after a busy week at Georgetown, Hairtwirler spent Sunday gearing up for the week of classes ahead, a little disappointed to find herself the only woman in her study group. Writing from Singapore, Necromonger sounded pleased with his new digs and impressed by his new flatmates, and he was also appreciative of INSEAD’s efficiency with the process.
Sounding slightly dazed and confused, m@ finished up the Ross Leadership Initiative, and in Fontainebleau Dee was nervous about networking at INSEAD. Meanwhile, ipoel was still at home in Indonesia, but was emotionally preparing herself to take off for Anderson soon. MaybeMBA took some time away from her baby and her packing boxes to consider Chicago’s curriculum options.
Second year student bloggers sounded much more relaxed than their first year counterparts last week. Rubeo Boy partied hard in Spain before returning to New York for another year at Stern. There was good news for MJ, who finished his consulting internship and accepted a job offer before returning to Fuqua. Patxi sounded very happy as he returned to LBS after a great vacation in Europe, while Benny had warm feelings for Hanover when he returned for another year at Tuck. On a similarly affectionate note, jacek shared a fond memory of his introduction to the Economist and Zanat0s let his readers know about MBA Insider, a valuable resource from Business Week.
That just about wraps it up for this week’s Fridays from the Frontline. Thanks for checking in, keep up the great posts, and best wishes for a happy Labor Day weekend!

Posted in: Essay Topic Analysis , School: INSEAD INSEAD’s essay questions cover a good deal of ground, giving candidates ample opportunity to discuss a range of topics related to their candidacies and highlight various elements of their interests and experiences. The first two “job essays” ask for a factual account of one’s current position and overall professional progression, while the rest of the set invite short reflections and exposition of the type MBA applicants are accustomed.
INSEAD’s total of seven essays puts the school at the high end of the MBA application spectrum in terms of questions posed. As always, careful forethought and planning before beginning to write will be important in ensuring that one is using each essay to one’s best advantage and presenting a balanced picture of a well-rounded individual. Let’s take a closer look at the questions:
Job Essays
1. Please give a detailed description of your job, including nature of work, major responsibilities; and, where relevant, employees under your supervision, size of budget, number of clients/products and results achieved. (250 words)
While the essays for most programs begin by addressing the overall progression of the applicant’s career up to this point, INSEAD’s first question requests a snapshot of the applicant’s career at this moment. Even if you have held a number of positions within the same organization, it’s best to maintain focus on your current position and responsibilities. Keeping in mind that this will be the adcom’s introduction to your materials, you might also provide the context necessary for the reader to understand your place within the organizational structure and the work that occupies your days. While there is some room to talk about “results achieved,” there’s no need to get bogged down in the specifics of certain projects or engagements – a good essay will be composed of fairly general comments that are focused on the present. It is fine to incorporate some more specific information about your career’s “greatest hits” later in response to other questions.
2. Please give us a full description of your career since graduating from university. If you were to remain with your present employer, what would be your next step in terms of position? (250 words)
This is a tall order for a 250 word essay, so brevity and efficient use of language will be key here. The adcom is looking for an applicant who can present her career as a coherent whole, and demonstrate that she has been on an upward trajectory since the outset. While it would be ideal for you to include some comments on lessons learned and skills gained over the course of your career, the primary focus should be touching upon each full-time post you’ve held, explaining the reasons behind each move you’ve made and commenting on increases and changes in responsibility.
Personal Essays
1. Give a candid description of yourself, stressing the personal characteristics you feel to be your strengths and weaknesses and the main factors which have influenced your personal development, giving examples when necessary. (400 words approx.)
It’s . . . → Continue Reading

Posted in: Essay Topic Analysis , School: Duke / Fuqua Though the order of the questions and distribution of subjects has changed slightly from last year, the wording and themes of Duke’s application essays remain largely the same. The topics range from failure to ethical dilemma to what makes each applicant unique – all common inquiries for leading MBA programs. Be sure to read carefully though – many of Fuqua’s essay topics contain multiple questions and prompts, and it’s important to answer each completely.
Short Essay 1: Why are you interested in The Duke MBA program and how will it help you achieve your goals? In answering, please also discuss your career path and state your short and long-term goals. If you are interested in the Health Sector Management concentration or a joint degree program, please address in this essay. (1.5 line spacing, Single-page) This is your standard career goals essay, with a stringent length limitation. Formerly the subjects of two separate essays, Duke has combined its questions about the applicant’s career path, goals and interest in its MBA program into a single prompt, requesting that candidates cover a good deal of ground in a single page. Brevity will be of the utmost importance as you sketch out the ways your work experience to date has informed and prepared you for your clear career goals, and detail the ways a Duke MBA will prepare you for success.
Short Essay 2: How will your background, values, and non-work related activities enhance the experience of other Duke MBA students and add value to the diverse culture we strive for at Fuqua? (1.5 line spacing, Single-page) The subject of contribution to the diversity of the Fuqua community stands alone as the topic of an entire essay this year (it was previously bundled into the long “background” essay), suggesting an increased interest in exactly what each candidate has to offer the school. The prompt is fairly broad, covering just about every dimension of one’s candidacy, experience and perspective, and inviting the applicant to imagine how his or her unique characteristics might map onto involvement in Team Fuqua. This response is a great place to showcase specific knowledge of the culture at Duke, as well as introduce information that will help you stand out from the applicant pool.
Long Essay 1: Please respond fully and concisely to one of the following essay topics. Clearly identify which question you have selected. **Though there is no word limit on the long essays, applicants typically use between 500 and 750 words. a. To be a good team player, one needs to be an effective individual leader and vice-versa. Describe an example of where you were challenged to become a leader in a team-oriented context. What was the challenge you faced, how did you address it, and what did you take away from the experience for your future development as a leader? This essay presents a great opportunity to showcase a leadership success that includes the angle of personal or professional growth as a result . . . → Continue Reading

Posted in: MBA News , School: Berkeley / Haas , School: MIT / Sloan The leadership at two top MBA programs is in transition this week. First, MIT announced this morning that David C. Schmittlein, a deputy dean at Wharton, has been named the next John C Head III Dean of the MIT Sloan School of Management, taking over for Richard Schmalensee. Schmittlein has been a professor and administrator at Wharton since 1980, serving as chair of the marketing department, co-director of Wharton’s Center for Marketing Strategy Research and vice dean and director of doctoral programs. In addition, Schmittlein is an active international marketing consultant who currently serves on the advisory boards of HEC business school in France as well as the China Europe International Business School in Shanghai. MIT Provost L. Rafael Reif believes that Schmittlein’s experience overseeing international initiatives while at Wharton will allow him to “hit the ground running” on October 15 when he begins at MIT Sloan. The full press release announcing the appointment, including more information on Schmittlein’s background and the expectations for his tenure, can be found on the MIT news page.
In other deanship news, Tom Campbell of the Haas School at the University of California Berkeley announced yesterday that he will not continue in his position when his 5-year appointment ends next July. During his tenure, Campbell has steadily increased fund raising at Haas, while also greatly strengthening the school’s national and international reputation. In the coming year, Campbell plans to focus on expanding the permanent, full-time faculty, thereby decreasing the student to teacher ratio and increasing the number of courses that can be offered. For more on Campbell’s accomplishments during his tenure and his decision to step down, be sure to read the full press release from Haas.

Posted in: School: Michigan / Ross , Trivia Tuesday Welcome to another edition of Trivia Tuesday, our weekly look at the distinguishing resources and opportunities offered by the leading business schools. With August coming to a close, first-year students at most MBA programs are on campus, getting to know each other, and getting ready for the start of classes. However, a few schools give students an opportunity to jump-start their friendships with classmates through participation in outdoor experiential learning trips. In past Trivia Tuesday columns we’ve discussed Chicago’s Random Walks, Kellogg’s KWEST trips, and Tuck’s Outward Bound program. To complement these discussions, we turn our attention this week to the Ross M-Trek program at the University of Michigan.
Prior to the start of Michigan’s pre-term and orientation programs, incoming students are invited to participate in M-Trek, an outdoor leadership program designed to foster leadership and teamwork skills while introducing students to their classmates. The trips were started in 1999 by a group of first-year students who wanted to strengthen the bonds between incoming classmates through experiential learning. The program has grown significantly since its inaugural year. Currently around 35-40% of incoming students participate in a Trek, with approximately 17% of second-year students choosing to lead a Trek. In summer 2007, the Class of 2009 chose from almost two dozen M-Trek trips.
The one-week trips are entirely student-run and each is led by a group of three to four second-year students. Destinations range from the U.S. and Europe to Africa and Latin America, with trips designed for a variety of skill levels and interests, and with prices ranging from $700-$1,600, plus airfare. By tradition, the M-Trek trip names tend to incorporate a pun on the destination and the 2007 Trek names are no exception. Some sample trip names include Getting the Banff Back Together, Where My Tahoe’s At?, You Gotta Belize! and All Thai-ed Up; students on these trips traveled to Banff, Canada; Tahoe, New Mexico; Belize and Thailand, respectively.
Since one of the goals of M-Trek is to be as inclusive as possible, partners of incoming students are also invited to take part in the M-Trek program through a specially designed three-day trip for partners that seeks to create the same bonds within this group as the other trips create among students. Students who have participated in an M-Trek rave about the experience, with 94% rating their experience as excellent or very good and many commenting that it was the best decision they made at Ross.
For more information on Ross’s M-Treks or the outdoor learning programs offered by other business schools, be sure to check out the Pre-Term & Orientation section of the Clear Admit School Guides!

Posted in: Essay Topic Analysis , School: Northwestern / Kellogg Kellogg’s made a handful of significant changes to their essays this year. In a move that has no doubt made many an applicant rejoice, the adcom has done away with the somewhat tricky self-assessment essay (which asked an applicant to critique their own candidacy as though he or she were an adcom member) that has been a hallmark of their application for years running. In a way, though, it makes sense for the school to have eliminated this question, as it prevented applicants from adding any new information to their files and limited them to commentary on information already shared in their essays and data forms.
This year, Kellogg has replaced the self-assessment with a required leadership essay, suggesting a heightened focus on this aspect of a candidate’s experience. In another change from last year’s application, candidates are now required to choose among four topics and complete two short essays, as opposed to the six options and three essays of seasons past.
Let’s take a closer look at those questions that do remain:
Essay 1: Briefly assess your career progress to date. Elaborate on your future career plans and your motivation for pursuing a graduate degree at the Kellogg School (1-2 double-spaced pages). This is another fairly standard career goals/why MBA essay. As usual, it’s important to remember that specificity of goals is key, and keep in mind that the school prides itself on its collegial culture when addressing the ‘why Kellogg’ issue. One more thing to note is that the request that applicants “assess” their progress to date is unique to Kellogg’s version of this question. This would suggest that it might be appropriate to incorporate a few reflective or even evaluative comments into your discussion of your professional path in order to tailor your perspective to Kellogg’s question.
Essay 2: Each of our applicants is unique. Describe how your background, values, academics, activities and/or leadership skills will enhance the experience of other Kellogg students (1-2 double-spaced pages). You’re being given the opportunity to do two very important things in this essay. The first is to share a good deal of interesting information about your interests and experiences in order to distinguish yourself from other applicants and help the adcom get to know you. Second, this essay is the perfect forum for you to demonstrate your research on and fit with the program by explaining the ways your involvements and experiences to date translate to a number of specific contributions to the Kellogg community. Whether it’s a class to which your insight would prove especially relevant or a function you could organize as a member of a certain club, the more detail you can provide about the impact you would make, the more reason you’ll give the adcom to admit you.
Essay 3: How have your past and current leadership experiences prepared you for Kellogg? What leadership areas are you hoping to develop through your MBA experience? (One to two pages double spaced.) While leadership has been . . . → Continue Reading

Posted in: General Earlier this week we discussed the bschooltalk.net video series and its value as a resource for MBA applicants. Today we’d like to highlight MBAPodcaster.com, a biweekly audio broadcast designed for applicants to top business programs.
The latest installment of the MBAPodcaster uses interviews with four admissions consultants – including Clear Admit’s Graham Richmond – to consider questions candidates should ask before signing on with an MBA admissions consultant.
In the interview, Graham discusses issues such as the benefits of working with Clear Admit, how to get the most of the relationship with your admissions counselor, and what distinguishes Clear Admit from other admissions consulting companies.
The free 40-minute podcast is available for download at http://www.mbapodcaster.com/podcasts.asp#Ep46; the conversation with Clear Admit begins approximately 20 minutes into the episode. Happy listening!

Posted in: Fridays from the Frontline Welcome back to Fridays From the Frontline, this (and every!) week’s recap of notable, not to mention quotable, updates from the blogosphere. With orientations and pre-terms picking up on campuses everywhere, first-years had an array of firsts to report, while applicants continued putting their best feet forward full speed ahead, and second-years got ready for the second time around. Let’s take a more in-depth look…
On the applicant front, Glamour Girl had a rousing time at the 3rd annual MBA Diversity Symposium in Philadelphia, enjoying an array of informative student panels and inspirational speakers, inciting her to get back into GMAT studying. Achilles, on the other hand, seemingly never departs from the GMAT way of life, upping his efforts this week despite scores many would be envious to call their own. Coming from a different angle, Vidviciveni offers up some offbeat GMAT advice: what not to do. Ever abreast of the admissions sphere, Geetu shares some admissions gems gleaned from attending a wealth of information sessions, most recently one hosted by the NC Penn Club, while Wannabe gives some great tips on so-called “recommender management.”
Bokaa, too, had recommenders on the brain this week, spending all day compiling a comprehensive recommender prep packet sure to garner him two stellar segues into the class of 2010. On the other end of the spectrum, Charu took a step back this week, giving serious (and itemized) consideration to the possible benefits of postponing the b-school journey till next year. In the thick of it, Mbabound08 chronicled, with fervor, the vicissitudes of… applying to business school, of course!
Eager to be on campus, Anand’s been enjoying Darden’s action packed Orientation, while noting with foreboding that his schedule is about to get even more packed as the school’s infamous workload sets in. The Chicago GSB lived up to Iday’s expectations as well, both inside and out, although the interior of his new apartment could use some work, starting with a bed… Meanwhile, tucked away in Hanover, JatWarrior might be hard pressed to find a place for his, noting that Tuck’s dorms are certainly “not for the claustrophobic”!
In between sprinting, swimming, and stacking chairs, HairTwirler finds that a Georgetown MBA is perhaps even more strenuous than she imagined. In Philadelphia, Asiangal’s also been running around, as part of the Wharton Leadership Ventures Navigation Challenge – just your basic scavenger hunt where each team is given a map, clues, two hours and three GPS tracking systems to gather maximal clues! Justinas’ entrée into business school, however, hasn’t been so state-of-the-art; he offers a hilarious inventory of the crises that have characterized his week one at Columbia. Also recapping a tough first week, CS is glad to be surviving HBS’ demanding Analytics Program, while still managing to find some time to explore Boston’s North End, home to . . . → Continue Reading

Posted in: Workbook Wednesdays Question
Kate and Danny each have $10. Together, they flip a fair coin 5 times. Every time the coin lands on heads, Kate gives Danny $1. Every time the coin lands on tails, Danny gives Kate $1. After the five coin flips, what is the probability that Kate has more than $10 but less than $15?
Answer
Let’s consider the different scenarios:If Kate wins all five flips, she ends up with $15. If Kate wins four flips, and Danny wins one flip, Kate is left with $13. If Kate wins three flips, and Danny wins two flips, Kate is left with $11. If Kate wins two flips, and Danny wins three flips, Kate is left with $9. If Kate wins one flip, and Danny wins four flips, Kate is left with $7. If Kate loses all five flips, she ends up with $5.
The question asks for the probability that Kate will end up with more than $10 but less than $15. In other words, we need to determine the probability that Kate is left with $11 or $13 (since there is no way Kate can end up with $12 or $14).
The probability that Kate ends up with $11 after the five flips:
Since there are 2 possible outcomes on each flip, and there are 5 flips, the total number of possible outcomes is . Thus, the five flips of the coin yield 32 different outcomes.
To determine the probability that Kate will end up with $11, we need to determine how many of these 32 outcomes include a combination of exactly three winning flips for Kate.
We can create a systematic list of combinations that include three wins for Kate and two wins for Danny: DKKKD, DKKDK, DKDKK, DDKKK, KDKKD, KDKDK, KDDKK, KKDKD, KKDDK, KKKDD = 10 ways.
Alternatively, we can consider each of the five flips as five spots. There are 5 potential spots for Kate’s first win. There are 4 potential spots for Kate’s second win (because one spot has already been taken by Kate’s first win). There are 3 potential spots for Kate’s third win. Thus, there are ways for Kate’s three victories to be ordered.
However, since we are interested only in unique winning combinations, this number must be reduced due to overcounting. Consider the winning combination KKKDD: This one winning combination has actually been counted 6 times (this is 3! or three factorial) because there are 6 different orderings of this one combination:
This overcounting by 6 is true for all of Kate’s three-victory combinations. Therefore, there are only ways for Kate to have three wins and end up with $11 (as we had discovered earlier from our systematic list).
The probability that Kate ends up with $13 after the five flips:
To determine the probability that Kate will end up with $13, we need to determine how many of the 32 total possible outcomes include a combination of exactly four winning flips for Kate.
Again, we can create a systematic . . . → Continue Reading

Posted in: Essay Topic Analysis , School: Stanford As followers of the MBA admissions space know, Stanford’s application has been undergoing some changes of late. Whereas applicants to the GSB were once given up to 10 pages to write on the subjects of their career goals and what matters most to them, the school reduced the length of these essays last season and introduced two more required responses detailing the applicant’s behavior in specific situations. This year, Stanford continues to fine-tune its new format, further narrowing the recommended page allocation across for its Essays A and B (from 3-4 pages to 3, and 2-3 pages to 2, respectively) and slightly adjusting the wording and focus of the four Essay C options.
In spite of these recent changes, however, the first two essays still constitute the heart of one’s application. Ideally, an applicant’s responses to Essays A and B would work together to provide the adcom a picture of the guiding force or principle behind his or her experiences to date (which can be covered in the first question) and objectives for the future (discussed in the second). While it’s possible that the thing that matters most to an applicant might be something completely removed from his or her professional objectives, it almost seems natural that the career goal discussion would be a slightly narrower continuation of the theme developed in Essay A.
Essay A: What matters most to you, and why? (3 double-spaced pages) The open-ended and somewhat philosophical nature of this question makes it a daunting (and potentially paralyzing) starting point. If a topic doesn’t immediately spring to mind, a constructive approach might be to think about your work experience, outside activities and general interests and look for some unifying theme among some or all of them. Because it’s always a good idea to introduce specific details and anecdotes to really tie the general ideas expressed in your essays to the key elements of your candidacy, it would be wise to select a topic that not only gives the adcom a sense of your values and priorities, but also allows to you discuss some of the ways you have translated these into action.
Essay B: What are your aspirations? How will your education at Stanford help you achieve these? (2 double-spaced pages) All told, this is a fairly standard career goals essay. Though Stanford leaves the question rather open ended, it will still be to the applicant’s benefit to sketch out a specific short and long-term goal, explaining the motivation and reasoning behind each, and to provide a detailed discussion of the ways a Stanford MBA would be conducive to achieving these aims as well as the potential contribution he or she could make to the program.
There’s one notable addition to this question is the following prompt that was added this year:
As a Stanford MBA student, you will be assigned a team of advisors who will guide both your academic experience and your personal development. Your team will include a faculty advisor, . . . → Continue Reading
