you’ll notice a "Cover Letter and Resume" section in the application. that’s all MIT asks for while applying.
hi, thank you very much. So are there no essays? Only cover letter and video part in addition to resume is sufficient?
Same question

Hello All, I have a question on resume...where do we include professional accomplishments as I follow sloan’s resume instructions...like they need Education (this should contain all undergrad/postgrad related), work experience (all impact and skills), additional information (extracurricular, languages, other skills)

Am I allowed to create a new section for professional accomplishments? appreciate your help

I might be missing something, but surely professional work accomplishments go under work experience?

In MIT Application’s Video section: Are we supposed to upload only video or any docs? There in write up, it mentioned uploaded docs cannot be more than 75 pages. What does it mean ?

Would you mind just copy-pasting the wording? I can't remember seeing that in my application in R1

Provide the following information in reverse chronological order:

Education: Please include relevant awards, scholarships and professional societies

Work Experience: Please include company name, title, results-oriented bullets that demonstrate your skill set, and dates

Additional information: Please include extracurricular activities/community service, technical skills/certifications, and special skills/interests, and languages spoken (if applicable)


This is what is mentioned on the Sloan website for Resume. Does this also imply that Education should be the first section on the resume?

Thanks

I think it would be okay to have your work experience first. At least, that is what I’m following. I have never seen any resume which lists the education section first.

You may not have seen it, and in principle it may be fine. But MIT has asked this for years, and mentioned it in pretty much every admissions webinar. I'd stick to their format as its what's been published and followed for a while now.
