Does anyone know if the admissions staff are looking for entrepreneurial candidates to state a specific field?

That is, if you state you want to be an entrepreneur when you apply, should you also state the industry you're interested in or is "entrepreneur" enough?

How specific do you need to be?

Be as specific as possible. As you know, entrepreneurship can cover any industry or area of expertise. Just saying that you want to be an entrepreneur will come across as vague and the admissions committee may question whether you have thoroughly considered what you plan to do with your MBA.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
