I was wondering how having an eBay business looks on an application to MBA programs. Does it count for entrepreneurship or business experience or anything like that? I'm talking about an eBay business where you sell about 20 or so products per month.

Is it a plus for an application or do admissions people ignore things like that?

Hi QuantumP7,

I would definitely talk about your eBay business in your application. Even if it's just a hobby, it shows that you can handle the administrative tasks of running a business and you have taken the initiative to start your own business.

Good luck!

"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."
