THERE ARE OFCOURSE SEVERAL WAYS OF PRESENTING A RESUME TO THE ADMISSIONS COMMITTE. ONE OF THEM HAPPENS TO BE "THE BANKER'S BLUE PRINT" OR THE ONE FOCUSSING DIRECTLY ON THE FINANCIAL ASPECT OF THE SUBJECT'S ACHIEVEMENTS, RATHER THAN JUST THE "MR. SENIOR ENGINEER". SHALL A RESUME PRESENTED IN SUCH A MANNER TEND TO HAVE A HIGHER CHANCE OF A POSITIVE OUTCOME?

Dear Shashank Raina,

There is no way to "game" the admissions process. Writing your resume in a specific format or using certain key words will not gain you any advantage. The best way to position your application for success is to present your background and experiences in the most effective way possible. Use the resume format you like and that you feel highlights what needs to be showcased on your resume. I highly encourage you to do some research on the MBA admissions process to gain a better understanding of the different application components--why each is asked for and important in the evaluation of a candidate.

Regards,
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."
