Now, many of you are nearing the end of what is a marathon MBA application cycle, and now the deadlines are coming fast and furious. And for you, this should now be sprint time. You\u2019ve paced yourself, you\u2019ve gotten yourself prepared, but now you really want to push really hard and do your best effort to get things through to the finish line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I\u2019d like to share with you three tips that I have for how you can really make your application shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-first-take-a-look-again-at-your-career-vision\">First, take a look again at your career vision.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I often tell my MBA clients that I work with, they should imagine they\u2019re on the stage at a TED Talk and you want to inspire the audience with what might be possible in your field, what innovations you might want to bring. Also, it should bridge to your past. It should have something to do with your past experience. And it\u2019s also great to set a milestone that you can reach in the next five to 10 years. If you don\u2019t think that your goal really meets that standard,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.accepted.com\/michelle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">I can absolutely help you out with that<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Second, transitions within your essay.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your job is to guide the audience through your story. They aren\u2019t the ones that are supposed to make sense of how the paragraphs all fit together. And oftentimes I find that\u2019s missing when I receive drafts from my clients. So that\u2019s something I can help you do so that it\u2019s a pleasure or to read your essay and whoever\u2019s reading it isn\u2019t hunting and pecking and trying to make sense of what you\u2019re trying to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Third, dumb mistakes.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, I bet all of you have tried to maximize your time and you\u2019ve developed some essays for one school that might work for another school with a little more research to make sure that they match that school. Sometimes mistakes come in, you might have forgotten and left the name of the old school in, and then it gets submitted to a different school. Doesn\u2019t look good. So that\u2019s something I can also help you with, going through fine tuning, finding the mistakes, making sure you\u2019ve got a perfect draft to push through the finish line and apply to your dream schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to work with me, these are things that we can absolutely do within the time that\u2019s left.
