HBS 2+2

by rg123 » Sat Mar 24, 2012 2:57 am
Hi,

I'm a senior undergrad applying to HBS 2+2 in Round 3. My question relates to the Why MBA? essay. How important is it to articulate why the 2+2 or the deferred admission program is the best fit for me, compared to applying two years down the line anyway?

In my case, I have strong experiences in start-ups as well as setting up an innovation fund for technology projects on campus, and post MBA I'd like to get into VC. But I also have a full-time offer to work with a BB Investment Bank in S&T from my internship. Should I highlight the fact that if admitted to HBS, I'll have the flexibility to work for a technology start-up (or start one on my own)?

Thanks.
