Hi
MbaIndAspirant21,
I have already evaluated your profile for Wharton and would love to do it for Stanford. Just to give you a glimpse, Stanford, more than any school, values individuals who are committed to creating an impact on the society and Stanford community. So, make sure you stick to this value through all your essays. Now evaluating your profile:
- Your stats are really excellent and as I said for Wharton, from this angle, you stand a good chance to get a scholarship program.
- Your professional experience and ECs seem great too but since you come from a very competitive pool, you need to be really good at crafting a good story.
I advise you to highlight and stick to these values throughout your application:
Intellect: While your GPAs and GMAT are considered, you need to highlight more about your intellectual curiosity, your initiatives, ability to challenge the status quo.
Strong Leadership: Try to exhibit strategic thinking, initiative, persistence, results orientation, developing others.
Personal Qualities: Highlight your values, passion, beliefs in terms of how you can contribute to the Stanford community.
Additionally, make sure you list down the gaps that you have identified in your profile that you think an MBA from Stanford will help you fill in order to achieve your post-MBA goals. Also, I am curious to know if you have applied for Stanford Reliance Dhirubhai Fellowship? Feel free to
book a free session with us as per your convenience.
Cheers!
