Stanford MBA Application Walkthrough
Application Deadlines:
*Applications must be submitted by 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time
Essays:
We request that you write two personal essays.
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.

In the education section GSB’s asking for our undergrad college and high school, do we need to write all of our high schools or just the one we graduated from?
Posts: 71
Just the one you graduated from unless they’ve specifically mentioned that you must write all

R2 offers better chance of selection as the no of seats are higher
WA@osp2308
In R3 you will be competing with all the applicants in around one, all the applicants in round two, and all the applicants in round three. Only about 10% of the class is being recruited in round three.... The worst round with the least chances and the lowest amount of financial aid available. 😞

Your profile looks good.As this reflects only the small part of your ability.overall strong Lor will help since you are working in a same company for long.
A strong Lor from your manager will boost your chances even further. That will reflector of your strong work performance.
Keeping the current global scenario you should at least target for 710+ for stanford.

Score is a bit low.
But you’re from relatively underrepresented group and an entrepreneur so might want to take a leap. But can’t say anything without looking at the profile more deeply to understand the nature of the startup overall post-MBA goals and all
