Essay question

by yvichman » Thu Jan 15, 2009 8:32 am
the topic give to me for my MBA essay is: Why MBA? What experiences professional/personal have made you believe this is the path you need to further your career?

It does not state anything asking to explain why I specifically want to attend that schools program? If I go into detail why the specific school , I'm a in error? How much should I get into as to why that program is ideal for me?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

Dear yvichman,

Even though the question does not specifically ask why you are applying to that school, I think it is important to include why you believe the school is a good match for your career goals. You are not in error by including that information and some readers will expect you to add it in on a question like this.

Good luck,
Lisa
