Harvard Business School Reapps–how to address what is new? You do not really have to!!!
Sandy
They do not have specific essay instructions for reapplicants…what do you think of that? Where can reapplicants talk about what improvements they’re made to their candidacy? Anything other particular advice you’d give to reapplicants for HBS?
You can use essay 3.6 what do you want board to understand about you to address How You Are New and Improved since last app–but that only works if you got real stuff to say about accmplmnts, etc. they dont want no more focused jive, or now I am ready, blah blah –a lot of reapps get in w.out address reapp issue. If you got something impt to say, say it. But better practice is just to make NEW app better by including more, including new stuff, and executing better. As w. so many burning issues w. other schools,
- WHY NOW
- WHY US
- CAREER ROADMAP
- WHY MBA
- WHAT’S NEW SINCE YOU APPLIED AND HOW ARE BETTER LOOKING AND NICER?
HBS DONT CARE!!!!! That is to say, they dont spec. ask. They sorta expect new app will have recent material and whole story of HOW SPECIAL you are in total vs. Specific Improvements is what they care about.
