I applied for the Brand and Product Management specialization as my goal is to go into CPG brand management. My recommendation for anybody reading this is to be true to your goals if you're applying to Wisconsin. Any MBA program wants you to have goals but I think Wisconsin really wants you to have a good idea of what you want to do given the specializations, just the vibe I got from this whole process. I did a lot of research on brand management in general and I think that made the difference in my essays and interview.
