YTP/Silverscholar/2+2 review

Hi .

I am a Junior year student of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Israel Institute of Technology (Technion). Its a top 25 Engineering university in the world and Rank 1 in Israel/Middle east.

I am extremely interested in applying for the Hbs 2+2 in particular and would be applying most probably in coming october round 1.

Below is my concise profile:

# GMAT : 730
# Undergrad average- 83% till now. Have been twice on dean's list of excellence. Receiving full
scholarship from the institute for academic performance.
# Did internship last summer at Harvard University. Worked in Environmental technology lab, expecting
co-authored paper soon.
# Invited again (and would go) to Harvard for another stipend internship this summer.
# One of the 12 fellows at Israel Asia Leaders Fellowship.
# Did some good research back here at Technion as well as in US.
# Working on a sponsored startup for environmental protection and afforestation, should be active
within 2-3 months
# Would be able to get 3 recommendations easily, including from the professor at Harvard.
# Visited Nepal as part of engineers without borders team to develop renewable energy systems there.


I guess i have few more stuff here and there, but i think these are the basics on which i want to focus my application. I am wondering with not much time left should i work on some other aspects of my profile too? What do you recommend and how do you see my profile for this competitive school.


Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your post. You have a great profile with quite a bit of diverse experience. Your work at Harvard will certainly help demonstrate your "fit" with the school and community (even though HBS is on a separate campus). Your work with engineers without borders rounds out your profile by adding a different perspective - you are obviously strong academically given your grades, work at Harvard and research efforts - that you can be effective both inside and outside of a lab.

Given the couple of months remaining before the deadline, I would suggest that you devote your time and energy into your essays. There really isn't anything you need to add to your profile at this time nor could you make any significant additions with so little time remaining. Be sure your essays include solid leadership examples since HBS is looking for strong leaders.

Best,

Stacey

Thanks a ton Stacey, you have definitely boosted my confidence and morale.

As for deadline I still have around 8-9 months since I would be applying in round 1 of 2017 class. I was wondering if I should improve my GMAT?
I am also working on Founding and leading a Asian Student's association here at the university soon, I hope it could add on to the leadership traits?

Would you recommend applying to any other programs besides 2+2 and IESE YTP?


Thanks.

Hi,

I really don't think it's necessary for you to retake the GMAT. However, if you feel you can increase your score then there is no harm in taking it again. Your 730 is a great score so you really need not retake!

You should take a look at the Yale Silver Scholars program. It might be a great fit for you.
