Hi, I'm planning to apply to HBS 2+2 in Round 3 this year. Some insight on what my profile looks like for the program, and what I should focus on for the essays, would be really useful:

- Ranked in top 200 (of 320,000) in the IIT entrance exam
- School topper

Internships

- Research Intern at the Quantitative Methods Group of an IIM
- Under a TED fellow at a Robotics start-up

ECs/Leadership
- Founder of a free forum to mentor school students. Helped out 200+ students/parents in an year
- Co-founder, convener of a successful tech club on campus, from 0-600 students in 1 year
- Head of 5 technical hobby clubs, leading a team of 30. Initiatives including an innovation program. Won IIT's organizational award for my impact.
- Institute mentor for freshmen undergrads - selected to a team of 70 from 350+ applications

Dear rg123,

You have the right building blocks for a competitive HBS 2+2 application. The key is configuring them properly into an outstanding application package. Your essays, recommendations and interview are critical components in your evaluation. As such, you need to convey a solid rationale for the 2+2 program and a realistic career path from now into the future. Likewise, you need to use examples that will distinguish you from similar applicants, especially in the last round where the number of seats available is quite small.

Good luck,
Lisa
