Best of Blogging 2007-2008 Results!
Apr 29, 2008 | 0 comments
After weeks of waiting and blogosphere buzz, we’re pleased to end the suspense and announce the results of our fourth annual Best of Blogging Awards! For the uninitiated, the aim of this event is to recognize those bloggers who have made an appreciable contribution to the online community, and to identify valuable sources of information and advice for incoming students and the next round of applicants.
We arrived at the ranking for both the applicant and student categories after careful evaluation of the eligible blogs by Clear Admit staff and consideration of input from the nominated bloggers and celebrity judges Bruce DelMonico of Yale SOM, Carly Chynoweth of The Times career blog Snakes and Ladders, Linda Abraham of Accepted.com and Brad Garrison (a.k.a. Hella). Below are the hotly anticipated listings of the top ten applicant and top ten student blogs overall, as well as the winners in a handful of more specific categories.
In the interest of time and ease of reading, please hold your applause until all the winners are announced …

Our congratulations go out to everyone whose blog has been recognized! We’ll be getting in touch with the top-ranked bloggers this week to iron out prize selection and distribution. Top-ranked bloggers July Dream and m@ will have their pick of an 8GB iPod Touch or a $300 Amazon.com gift certificate, and Miss Curly Bee, VidiViciVeni, MaybeMBA and Hair Twirler can opt for a subscription to either Business Week or The Economist: a token of our gratitude for the time and effort they’ve put into creating interesting and informative accounts of their MBA-related experiences.
Finally, we’d like to thank the celebrity judges and voting bloggers who made the BoB awards possible, as well as the blogging community at large who make this exercise worthwhile. We’re constantly impressed with the depth and breadth of material that MBA applicants and students share with each other, and with the supportive atmosphere this fosters. We’re looking forward to another great year of content detailing the application process and MBA experience – happy reading and writing!
