Hello everyone, congrats to the admits and those receiving an interview. I have kind of overlooked ESADE over the years but after listening to some ESADE presentations and interviews this weekend I am really very impressed (what got me: do you want to study with smart people or study with smart, nice people?)
Anyhow, would like to submit one or two clients there this cycle. However I cannot for the life of me find word limits for the essays (the main essays; I read the earlier exchange about the short responses.) Can someone please point me in the right direction? I really have to say I want to cut their website designer; it's a serious challenge to obtain information on there, outdated vids, etc. Ugh.
Also wondering if it is basically rolling admissions in between the designated rounds. The interviewee (Keegan) said it was "like" rolling but they wanted to break it up a bit or something to give you a goal or something? Anyways I am working with an applicant submitting to IESE and LBS on March 1 so the March 5 deadline seems difficult to reach but a week after that would be feasible. Hoping they will review his app before the round 6 deadline.
It seems there are no word limits for the letters of recommendation; let me know if this is not the case.
Any information would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Farrell
Hey
MBAPrepCoach, so I learned that the hard way... I did see any limitation on the first 3 essays, and so there were long... I discovered that when I submitted them. There is a 3000 CHARACTERS limit on the essays 1,2,3 and 1000 for 4,5. When I copied my essays I got an error message with part of the website's code, and with "max length = 3000".
For me personally, I called the MBA team with the description of the situation and they have approved sending the essays by mail, since it was deadline day and I couldn't rewrite them in due time.
The rounds are monthly, last time I checked.
I hope this helps.
