Profile Evaluation for Re-Applicant - UC Berkeley Part time

Hi,

Thanks for your post. It appears you were able to get some sound feedback on your application from last year. Given the information you've shared, it sounds like a combination of lack of work experience (as compared to the average amount for admitted students) and essays were your weak points.

Putting together solid essays this year is critical to your success. The adcom needs to be able to truly understand why you are seeking an MBA at this point in your career, and specifically why a part time program suits your needs, especially given that most candidates of your experience level apply to full time programs. You'll not only want to choose appropriate topics to stand out in the applicant pool, but you will also want to pay particular attention to the details since this was specifically pointed out to you as a concern.

Lastly, be sure to focus your time an attention on the application data forms as well. Many times candidates rush through these and miss important details or have typos and other errors which leave a bad impression on the adcom. Attention to detail is a critical factor in admissions decisions.

Please feel free to send your resume to [email protected] to learn more about your candidacy and see if Clear Admit can help you with your reapplication.

Best,

Stacey
