| FROM Accepted.com Blog: London Business School Executive MBA Essay Tips & Deadlines [2022 – 2023] |
 The 2 application essay questions, although quite different, both ask you to discuss how you’ll connect with the LBS EMBA program, classmates, and community. And this emphasis in turn underscores LBS’s values of collaboration, contribution, and engagement. I suggest keeping these values on the radar screen as you conceive and draft these two essays. And these questions can overlap a bit, so read both and think through your answers to ensure you make the best use of this space to make your case. London Business School Executive MBA application essays LBS Executive MBA essay #1 Please provide a personal statement explaining how you will contribute to the experience of others on the programme, and how the Executive MBA programme will benefit you. (600 words maximum) How interesting that the question starts not with you and your goals, but with what you will contribute to your classmates’ experience. Be guided by that priority. That doesn’t mean you have to start your essay with that point, but, rather, be substantive. When you are allocating space to different components of the discussion, do not shortchange this contribution point. Rather, provide thoughtful examples rooted in experience, and specify how it might be helpful or worthwhile to others in the program – it’s an opportunity to spotlight your understanding of the LBS EMBA cohort. The part of the essay discussing how the program will benefit you should contain your career goals (you may emphasize immediate, short-term, intermediate, or long-term, but I suggest keeping most focus and detail on immediate through intermediate goals) – what are the learning needs these goals engender, and how will the program meet those needs? You can also address anticipated personal growth benefits of attending the program. << READ: SAMPLE EMBA APPLICATION ESSAY >> LBS Executive MBA essay #2 Describe what it would mean to you personally to be an alumnus of London Business School, what you believe membership of the community represents, and how you would give back to London Business School in the future. (600 words maximum) This question is also about your connection to the program; its focus is fit, your fit with the program. And it’s really 3 questions, so let’s look at each separately.
What’s next? You’ve worked so hard to get to where you are in life. Now that you’re ready for your next achievement, make sure you know how to present yourself to maximum advantage in your executive MBA applications. In a hotly competitive season, you’ll want a member of Team Accepted in your corner, guiding you with expertise tailored specifically for you.

| FROM Accepted.com Blog: Accepted Announces Partnership with B-Speak! English |
 For more than 25 years, Accepted has been committed to helping our clients succeed in achieving their educational and career goals. Primarily, we have done this through our top-notch admissions consulting, but when we believe our clients can benefit from complementary services, we have suggested those services to them. Now, we have another such opportunity that we are excited to share with you. Many international clients who are not native English speakers require some coaching in English language skills to perform optimally as grad school applicants, but these services might involve a class here, a tutor there–nothing that was “one-stop shopping.” This is why we were so pleased to discover B-Speak! English, the only English-language program created for international applicants to U.S. business graduate programs. Initially designed for international students at Darden in 2014, the coaches at B-Speak! English help clients strengthen the skills they will need most when applying to business/graduate school applicants around the world. These include: building confidence, storytelling and interview prep, improving spoken and written English (grammar, pronunciation), and building vocabulary and everyday, conversational English abilities. Check out the B-Speak! service for Accepted clients B-Speak! not only partners with top business schools as their students prepare for the challenges of the graduate school classroom, but also works with individuals applying to schools – or to their dream jobs. How does B-Speak! English help international applicants?
Our partnership with B-Speak! English will entitle our clients to discounted rates – another great benefit to working with Accepted. It’s never too early to bolster your English communication skills, and if grad school applications are on the horizon, why not check out B-Speak! English’s services right now? Check out Linda Abraham’s Podcast with Christina Ball, founder of B-Speak! English >> Together, Accepted and B-Speak! help international applicants present their best selves to their top schools! Check out the B-Speak! service for Accepted clients What B-Speak! clients say: “My instructor is very professional. My ultimate goal is to improve my speaking skills during interviews. The coaching sessions indeed have proven to be very valuable for my ultimate goal.” – Jinkai Liu, Admitted to Duke-Fuqua “The lessons are great…I wish I’d started them in the summer. I highly recommend B-Speak! I feel much more confident about my English, thanks to these lessons.” – Lior Pardess, admitted to Duke-Fuqua “I was able to land a full-time job after several B-Speak! coaching sessions. I would say that B-Speak is not just an English language coaching session. It is about how you can better understand business culture and the MBA life in the American or global context. I think that international students should consider B-Speak coaching before MBA because it will help them to better understand the American culture, to learn what they will expect in business school and to get better prepared for the upcoming MBA life.” – Yuan W., Darden MBA graduate ”I had a great experience at B-Speak! My teacher was awesome! It was very personalized to my needs. I’ve been studying English for 22 years, and this one was, by far, my best experience.” – Mariano S. admitted to Darden. “B-Speak! is an English course that is very relevant for MBA students looking to improve their communication or written skills for any business needs, whether it is for interviewing or school. I think there are a lot of English courses out there, but there are not many with coaches who understand the life of an MBA student, the challenges they are facing, and their priorities. I would say B-Speak! is one of those that can accommodate our needs exactly.” – Nydia Tumalewa, admitted to Darden MBA.  For 25 years, Accepted has helped business school applicants gain acceptance to top programs. Our outstanding team of MBA admissions consultants features former business school admissions directors and professional writers who have guided our clients to admission at top MBA, EMBA, and other graduate business programs worldwide including Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Booth, INSEAD, London Business School, and many more.

| FROM Accepted.com Blog: Kellogg EMBA Application Essay Tips and Deadlines [2022 – 2023] |
 Kellogg’s two required EMBA application essay questions present a paradox: they’re straightforward and complex. Together, they draw out a fully rounded view of you as a person and as a professional, what you’ve done and how you think and perceive the world. To the extent possible, ground your essays in detail and concrete experience, and use reflection as the thread weaving those details and experiences into a vivid whole. Essays 1 and 2 together should amplify and resonate with each other. They should be neither redundant nor discordant. Before or while drafting them, consider them as a whole. While they must each succeed as a separate statement, to do you the most justice they also should work together as parts of a dynamic whole.  Kellogg EMBA 2022-23 Application Essays Kellogg EMBA essay #1 What are your short-term and long-term career goals? What have you already done to get there and how do you think Kellogg can help you? (450 word maximum) In presenting your goals, frame them with “why” you want to pursue that path and the impact you hope to have. Clarifying this motivation will animate the essay and engage the reader. Also, of course, support this vision by describing your goals in specific terms: likely positions, which company or industry, desired location, and some related context, e.g. anticipated challenges you or your organization may face, your take on industry trends and how they affect your goals, and so forth. Then connect the dots: explain how this stated path will enable you to deliver the desired impact. In asking what you have already done to pursue these goals, the adcom is essentially seeking evidence that you are truly committed to this career path. Answering this part allows you to show that you are proactive, strategic, and resourceful. Don’t cite everything you’ve done in this regard, but rather identify the 2-3 most important experiences – and what you gained from them. In explaining why Kellogg must be the next step on that path, link the resources of the Kellogg EMBA to the specific learning and professional needs arising from your planned path. Kellogg EMBA essay #2 Define what community means to you. Share an example of how you contribute to a community and how that contribution is impacting that community. (450 word maximum) This question aims right at the heart of what Kellogg cares about (and always has). Kellogg’s sense of community is a central value of the business school and reflects its core identity. To define what community means to you, be concrete. There are many communities in your life, and probably they overlap. Your work, your neighborhood and the broader region, your friends from various areas of your life, any organizations or groups you belong to or participate in, cultural or religious groups, etc. When you describe what community means to you, give examples referencing your communities — your definition should encompass different communities. To address the “contribute” part, present a straightforward story about one of your community contributions. Identify and describe what community you are referring to. Clarify why it’s meaningful to you, and briefly summarize your history with and roles in the community. Next, action: what did you do to contribute. I.e., what need did you recognize and what did you do in response? What was the outcome of your action(s), what changed as a result? Kellogg EMBA essay #3 (Optional) If needed, use this section to briefly describe any extenuating circumstances (e.g. unexplained gaps in work experience, choice of recommenders, inconsistent or questionable academic performance, etc.). This question explicitly limits the potential topics to extenuating circumstances, so don’t use it to further market yourself by presenting new material to enhance your application. If you do not have extenuating circumstances, do not write the essay. If you do need to provide such information, do it succinctly and straightforwardly. You’ve worked so hard to get to this point in your journey. Now that you’re ready for your next achievement, make sure you know how to present yourself to maximum advantage in your Kellogg EMBA application.
