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

"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."
