In each essay, we want to hear your genuine voice. Think carefully about your values, passions, aims, and dreams. There is no “right answer” to these questions — the best answer is the one that is truest for you. Essay A: What matters most to you, and why? For this essay, we would like you to reflect deeply and write from the heart. Once you’ve identified what matters most to you, help us understand why. You might consider, for example, what makes this so important to you? What people, insights, or experiences have shaped your perspectives? Essay B: Why Stanford? Describe your aspirations and how your Stanford GSB experience will help you realize them. If you are applying to both the MBA and MSx programs, use Essay B to address your interest in both programs.

Looks like you felt offended. I am sorry if you felt so. See "this may be" is applicable to other schools, not the UC Berkeley MBA. Do you have any specific instances to endorse this? Please share I would love to be corrected here. this is not the case with UC Berkeley. Except for one or two schools, any school based in California requires a candidate to write an English proficiency test irrespective of the points you have highlighted above. just to add: Most of the schools based in California except Stanford or two more I believe are flexible to accept second MBA. not others. https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ultramsgmedia/2025/8/104644/56189a7d020a58e67de9c23821eed314 You need to read this very carefully. One more point I would to add regarding the UC Berkeley admission process. Please arrange an official transcript well in advance. Post your admission, you need to immediately send physical copy or arrange from institution to send a copy via official email id of the undergrad institution.

Failure to comply with this may result in certain rejection.

I don't think so. In most of the schools, you will get a default waiver.
