Guide Review - MBA Admissions Strategy
MBA Admissions Strategy is by far one of the best books on the market for MBA applicants. This essential guide was written by A.V. Gordon, the Director of The MBA Admissions Studio(www.mbastudio.net) and a resident MBA admissions essay expert with The World MBA Tour.MBA Admissions Strategy takes readers on a well-organized journey into the minds of admissions committees. The book explains, in detail, what makes a good applicant versus a great applicant, and then offers advice on how to get into a top MBA school using proven strategies.
Each of the four sections included in MBA Admissions Strategy (admissions strategy, profile building tools, essay management, and writing tools) will prove helpful to applicants, but the essay section alone is reason enough to buy this book. The section goes over MBA essay question archetypes and then offers detailed instruction on how to and how not to approach these questions.
In short, I would recommend MBA Admissions Strategy to anyone who wants to increase the odds of getting into a top MBA program.
