3 Tips for Writing a Stellar MBA Application Essay
2
1. Get specific with your goals

• With every MBA application essay you write, you
  have to talk about your long-term and short-term
  goals. Its a tough task that may bring up
  repressed memories of tense dinner convos with
  your parents talking about the future, but
  youre an adult now. Youve got this.

2. Quantify your success

• You know youre smart, hard working, successful
  and a hot prospect. But to make your application
  stand out, youll have to prove it. Your
  achievements have to be quantifiable stuff you
  can prove. Numbers are your friend. Whatever your
  achievement, use numbers and statistics to back
  it up.

3. Stand out with your personal qualities

• This should be the heart of every great
  application. What makes you a unique and
  interesting person? This is actually much harder
  than it sounds. This isnt about listing hobbies
  and making generalizations about your
  personality. Think of something only you enjoy,
  even though your friends think its weird or
  uncool thats what makes you unique. Then make
  sure and connect it to the rest of your essay.
