Personally i think the best way is to test out by purchasing 1-3 hours and them have them review your essay

that’s why i very much like joinleland because their hour rate is affordable

Hi aarshdeepsingh98,
Here’s a compilation of some questions shared by some very generous people:

1. Tell us something about yourself that we won’t know from your resume
2. Tell us about a time you were uncomfortable. How did you feel?
3. Most important piece of advice you have received, and its impact on your life

1. Tell us about yourself that we already don’t know from Resume.
2. Tell us about a time you received harsh feedback. What was your reaction and how did you proceed/ something on similar lines 🙃.
3. Tell us about a time where you used unique or creative way to solve a problem. What did you do and what was the outcome?

1. Introduce yourself and tell us something about yourself in a way we wouldn’t know from your resume
2. Tell us about a time when you helped improve a process i your company, organisation or community
3. Tell us best piece of advice you have received, how you utilised it and how it impacted you

1. Introduce yourself to Adcoms & what about you that’s not on your resume
2. Why Kellogg sort of
3. Tell us about a time you made an impact.

1. Tell us something about you which is not there on resume
2. Tell us about a time you failed and how did you improve the next time
3. What is one value or quality that you bring to Kellogg community and how will it help others?

1 - Introduce yourself
2 - When and how did you resolve a conflict
3 - outside school and outside office experience that motivated you to pursue a postgraduate education

1. Introduce yourself to AdCom and highlight one thing we won’t know from your CV
2. Tell us a time when you face unforseen Or unexpected challenges
3. A time when you solved something creatively

Hi Mandy001, A lot of thoughts go into selecting a suitable admission consultant. I would recommend you speak with at least five different admission consultants and see which one you feel most connected with. You need to be very comprehensive and clear on what you need out of an admission consultant. Some things that I’d consider are:
1. Sense of connection- I feel that not everyone can bring the best out of you. One needs to feel the kind of connection that would help foster trust. Your admission consultant should ideally have a context of your upbringing, values, and stories. For example - An excellent Indian consultant who has helped many Indian and European people get into top B-schools might not be the best one to help an African candidate
2. Fees- Different people have different fees. Candidates can go only up to an extent. You could find excellent admission consultants for under 1000 USD per school and also over 5000 USD per school. You need to set a budget for yourself
3. School-specific- Some admission consultants are very notorious for specific schools. If you have a preferred school for which you would want an admission consultant, probably explore that option

That being said, these are just a few of the things. However, much clarity comes when you speak with admission consultants. Ask them about how you would work. How the whole process will be. How frequently would you connect. What would be the medium of contact. And a whole lot of other things that you would expect from an admission consultant!

How important is it that the stories in the video essays are different from the ones in the application?

Bazinga123456, I believe and also gather that the video essays are a testament to your communication skills, quick on feet thinking and to see if the person is talliable with the person in the essay (a face to the name). It most probably is not a content checker.

That is pretty much it, they have mentioned in the mail that they’ll match and send across details.

Completed my video essays today. Good luck to those who haven’t done it yet.

1. Tell us something about yourself that is not on your resume.
2. Can’t remember right now.
3. Tell us about a time when you added value by doing something that wasn’t done before at work?

Just got matched with an alum but think it's down to my time zone being less popular more than anything. (BST)

Surprised that the matching algo was working on the weekend!

Only if one of your prompts indicates that you should. None of mine did. But, be prepared to if you get a prompt asking “why Kellogg” and be prepared to during your live interview.
