MBA Essay Samples : Beware of Using Them!



Creating strong and compelling MBA essays that interest as well as impact MBA Admissions Committees is never an easy job. With multiple schools to apply to, and different essays for each, the pressure for putting in all the required elements and yet stick to the word limit can be immense. Of course, reviewing your essays multiple times and incorporating the feedback obtained from others also saps your energy. At this time, some applicants can feel fatigue and make the fatal mistake of looking for MBA essay samples online – some for outright usage, others for ‘inspiration’..Indian IT Male MBA

MBA after Teach For India



Every year, we have the opportunity to speak to a few bright and enterprising young men and women who have spent two important years of their life volunteering for Teach For India. They are looking at an MBA after Teach for India (TFI). We also occasionally come across people who ask whether a Teach for India Fellowship will help improve their chances for an MBA and differentiate their profiles. To those people, if they happen to be reading this article, here is our advice..MBA after Teach For India

MBA for Indian Army / Navy / Air Force Veterans



An MBA after a life in the Indian armed forces (Army / Navy / Air Force) is something that many officers consider after they leave the military. Your operations and administration skills are far superior to those possessed by people in civilian life. After all, as an armed forces officer you are a natural leader – you have commanded large groups of men in difficult conditions, and handled many emergencies. Now, an MBA can help you to further add skills and business acumen that can make possible the attainment of better positions in business and professional life..MBA for Indian Army

GMAT vs GRE for MBA Programs



GMAT vs GRE – this is a conundrum that is not uncommon among MBA applicants today. This scenario has developed fairly recently, but it is here to stay. 2011 onwards, ETS (Education Testing Service, the people who conduct the GRE) started pushing for wider inclusion of the GRE among business schools. According to a US News report, more and more business schools are now also accepting the GRE for MBA admissions. Before we can get to the question on whether one should take the GRE or the GMAT for B-school admissions, we first need to compare the two tests to point out obvious differences..GMAT vs GRE for MBA Programs

Retaking GMAT: How To Do Better Next Time



So you did less than your best on the GMAT? Read on!
The GMAT can be brutal sometimes. After months of preparing week after week, day after day, sometimes the result comes out to be significantly below your expectation. This can mean not just frustration and disappointment at not being able to reach a target score, but also concern around being able to muster your strength for a second attempt and do better next time round. Retaking GMAT is not about being disappointed, but about analyzing what went wrong, and then fixing it..Retaking GMAT: How To Do Better Next Time

IMD Assessment Day: What to Expect



IMD Assessment Day – what is it?
Forget 30 minute admissions interviews. The IMD assessment day is the king of the interview and assessment process. Over a full day, MBA applicants (assessment day participants) visit the IMD campus in Lausanne, Switzerland, and go through multiple stages of assessment. IMD business school was ranked no.1 among Forbes International business schools 2013 rankings. As we have detailed earlier in a post on one (successful) IMD MBA applicant’s experience, the process has a number of components, and each requires specific preparation to do well at. While a lot of it comes down to one’s natural ability to network, preparation definitely helps. We say this on two counts: people who went to the IMD assessment day with minimal preparation and were then surprised and felt under-prepared by the intensity of it, and people (including our clients) who prepared well and stated explicitly how they felt rewarded by it on IMD assessment day..IMD MBA

MBA for Doctors and Healthcare Professionals



The MBA in Healthcare – more popular than ever
The MBA for Doctors is fast becoming a popular option for healthcare professionals who do not wish to stay with clinical practice or research careers. The landscape of opportunity for such programs used to be fairly restricted till just a few years back, but two particular trends have made this a top option now for doctors looking at careers in healthcare administration and business management. One, more top MBA programs have now started offering a healthcare focus or concentration. Two, there is an increased awareness in large healthcare institutions, hospitals, and pharmaceuticals companies on the need for experienced doctors who also have business education to manage the affairs of their companies..MBA for Doctors and Healthcare Professionals

Indian MBA Applicants: Advice for MBA Admissions



The art of the Indian MBA application
Thousands of Indians apply through the GMAT route to top MBA programs in the US, Europe, and Asia every year. While many make it, there are also many others who have nothing to show for their efforts but their disappointment. The MBA application process is not always easy, and sometimes it can be plain brutal for those who are not prepared. Taking the GMAT and doing well on it, preparing insightful and interesting essays, and doing well on the interviews are obvious common denominators. Indian applicants, especially those from over-represented backgrounds like IT services, need to focus on a number of factors to create a differentiated and winning application. GyanOne lists some of these factors below..MBA Admission Consultants India

ISB FPM Admissions: How to Apply, and How to Get in



FPM programme ISB FPM Admissions process: what you must know
We have written about Akshay Gupta earlier. A former GyanOne client, he worked with us on his applications to top MBA programs in Asia, finally choosing to attend ISB. Akshay excelled at the ISB program, finishing just below the top 10% (Dean’s list) of the class, and achieving a very high GPA on Finance courses. ISB fascinated and excited Akshay, and he even wrote a guest post for us on life at ISB. Simultaneously, though, Akshay felt a longing to go deeper into his chosen area of study – Accounting – than an MBA would allow. He longed not just to study and apply, but also research in the area. He therefore set his sights on the ISB Fellow Program in Management (FPM), targeting admissions immediately after completing his ISB MBA, and contacted GyanOne for admissions consulting on this..ISB FPM Admissions

PhD in Management in India



A PhD in Management in India is not an option that most people who wanted to teach/research in India took even a decade back. A PhD from a top school abroad was considered to be the holy grail of academic excellence which would help top professionals find the best teaching opportunities in India. Further, not many institutions in India really offered true research opportunities, leading many to believe that the best opportunities for professional growth after a PhD in Management lay outside India.
Over the last decade, things began to change. A lot many more professionals began to realize the value offered by top programs for PhD in Management in India..PhD in Management in India

Consulting After MBA: The Opportunities and The Firms



Consulting after MBA seems to be the preferred career choice for the vast majority of MBA applicants today.

Whatever the allure, the fact is that consulting after MBA forms the predominant career choice for B-school applicants when they apply..Consulting After MBA

1 On 1 GMAT Tutoring: the Advantages of a Personalized Approach



1 on 1 GMAT coaching
A lot of potential GMAT test-takers sometimes ask us about the benefits of one-on-one private GMAT tutoring over the other, more traditional methods. As these questions become more and more frequent, they have outgrown what could have been answered by a simple FAQ. This post helps to highlight what we feel are the advantages of studying in a 1 on 1 GMAT tutoring environment (and a couple of caveats too)..1 on 1 GMAT

Indian IT Male MBA Applicants: Part 4 – MBA Application Essays



One of the key reasons that the Indian IT male MBA applicants face so much competition is that most applications from this group look the same.
They focus on programming languages, on technologies (SAP/Oracle and the like), or onsite stints, and on creating tools, rather than strategies, that help IT clients achieve beneficial outcomes. No doubt some of these perspectives are important, but too often they mask the personal aspects of a candidate.
What led you to choose Computer Science in the first place? What community and social activities have you bee a part of? Did you pick up a foreign language when you worked in Europe for a few months? All of these are just examples, but they can provide an important edge to your application and help you stand out in a competitive pool of applicants..Indian IT Male MBA

ISB Non Profit Background Success Story: GyanOne



The ISB non profit landscape is competitive. This may strike many applicants as surprising, since most people tend to think that it is engineers and techies who dominate the applicant landscape the most. That is true, but people applying with a non profit background don’t have it easy either. Not only must they establish the importance of what they are doing, but they must also clearly demonstrate the need for an MBA, which can be much more difficult to do coming in from a non-corporate background. Ironically, though, Lipika’s journey starts from her corporate IT job..MBA Success Stories

Hi pranav7673

Thank you for posting. We believe you have an exceptional profile basis your work in the Indian Navy. Your key challenge will be converting your experience and operations expertise to something that would fit within the business context. Leadership, planning, and execution is something you clearly excel at.

In terms of one-year MBA programs, you can look ISB and the IIMs (India), Nanyang (Singapore), IESE and HEC (Europe), Oxford (UK), and Ivey (Canada).

Hope this helps. Please feel free to come back with more queries as needed.

Indian Male Engineer MBA Success – Admitted to Tuck, Tepper, and McCombs!



Is the Indian male engineer MBA story condemned to eternal disappointment? The truth could not be further from this. In an earlier post on the Indian IT Male’s MBA prospects, and another on the importance of school selection, we have highlighted that IT professionals need not approach the MBA application process defensively. This post is all about the fantastic results achieved by a person who did exactly this, ending up with admits to three of America’s best MBA programs – Tuck, Tepper, and McCombs! This is one of the most positive Indian male engineer MBA success stories you will come across, but this is no longer rare.
