Hoping for some quick advice on a big error: I just completed my video essay, and in Question 1, I made a huge mistake and said I was excited about applying to WHARTON (and then immediately swore under my breath after realizing). In my second question, I started out by apologizing for my prior slip of the tongue and said I had no excuse but was simply overexcited about the MBA process.
I realize this is the most obvious mistake one should avoid. The question is, is this worth submitting supplemental materials or an email to the adcom apologizing, or should I just leave it be? I'm hoping I didn't just completely blackball myself.
I’m sorry this happened to you. It’s really hard to say what’s the best action here because it’s going to be pretty subjective and everyone can have their own opinion.
What I’d do in this case, is to politely email the adcoms. Tell them you messed up in your video interview (without giving in full details) and would like another shot if possible.
If it’s one of those Kira talent thing, I don’t see it to be very hard to give it a refresh but it depends on how convincing you are in your appeal. A phone call would be better than an email.
