In particular, applicants from India, China and other Asian countries in which the undergraduate programs never ask applicants to write admission essays, later on face a herculean challenge during their application to the top-ranked programs in the USA and EU. The education systems of Asian countries are designed in such a peculiar fashion that students just need to clear a highly competitive entrance examination in order to join prestigious engineering colleges (Joint Entrance Exam in India and Gaokao in China). Even top ranked two year MBA programs in India such as IIMs and XLRI usually don’t ask applicants to write admission essays (ISB and IIMs PGPX are the only exceptions). Eventually, the Asian countries, especially India, China, Indonesia, Malaysia etc, are flooded with millions of engineers, doctors, chartered accountants, marketing, sales, HR professionals, who have actually never had the scope to write admissions essays in their entire academic life.

This scenario is quite similar in Asia, Africa and South America. This is just an eye-opening fact. In contrast, colleges in the USA, Canada and the EU need applicants to write persuasive application essays for acquiring their dream admission to almost every undergraduate program. The majority of the applicants in the Indian subcontinent typically lack the habit of writing blogs/articles or essays. Millennial are more inclined to watch YouTube videos rather than write blogs/articles in English. Consequently, applicants keep on ransacking the internet for sample MBA essays during their B-school application tenure. In fact, that’s the very first habitual step they take post bagging a satisfactory score in GMAT.

Reading aloud the given sample MBA essays below will equip the beginners with a first hand advantage on how to attempt jotting down some of the basic ideas for admissions essays. That’s exactly the main purpose of publishing these essays on the website. The purpose is definitely not to showcase my literary genius or creative writing skills. These sample MBA essays are surely not instruments of digital marketing campaigns. These are published so as to give millions of Asian applicants a glimpse at remarkable MBA admission essays. That’s all!

During the ding analysis of the rejected applicants, I have often observed that numerous applicants write their admission essays in line with the given samples or sample MBA essays published on other websites. It’s a cakewalk to write the introduction paragraph of your own essay based on the line of thought given in a sample MBA essay and thereafter go to a different website in order to pick some fresh ideas on how to write the conclusion paragraph. Hundreds of applicants just do that, mere copy and paste with ease. They confidently overlook the fact that they are digging their own grave by indulging in such activities. Diligently reading sample MBA essays on various websites won’t make you a master of the art of storytelling. Passionately watching an Oscar winning movie doesn’t make you a filmmaker, watching the NBA doesn’t make you an athlete, and watching a gymnasium from outside doesn’t make you physically fit. Please remember, reviewing sample MBA essays on fifty websites won’t help you much in creating engaging admissions essays. In order to do so, you need to think deeply about your life, understand your core competencies, your leadership skills, psychology, leadership style, strengths and weaknesses. Thereafter, you need to connect the dots of your life and pen down thoughts in an admissions essay. Edit the essays multiple times till you are satisfied. Thankfully, Yes! Now you can click the Submit button.

Conversely, you can just contact me in order to save a lot of time and eventually aspire to create engaging essays in just 2~3 weeks. Hopefully, your essays will be read by future applicants when they search for sample MBA essays during their MBA admissions.

You can certainly read hundreds of articles on MBA admissions and spend hours on online MBA forums in order to become a semi-expert on the MBA admission process. Some applicants don’t hire any MBA admissions consultants and save thousands of dollars in the process. If you are a rock star applicant (780 GMAT, working in Meta, Tesla or Goldman Sachs), then certainly you don’t need any consultant (MBA admissions consultants need you so as to boost their success ratio!). However, if you aren’t a rock star applicant, hiring an experienced and wise MBA admissions consultant will save enormous time and hardship whilst adding a positive push to your entire application process. I mean if I have to fight a legal case, should I read fifty articles online related to law and jurisprudence and then figure out my case? Or should I just hire a lawyer? The lawyer undoubtedly will be expensive. Agreed! But he will fight the case befittingly and pull me out of the unnecessary legal trouble (just ask OJ Simpson, how effective lawyers are!). That’s exactly the same reason why Meta, Google or Citibank hire McKinsey consultants. External consultants are experts on a particular industry and they solve identical problems across companies. That’s the way external management consultants develop their core competencies in a particular niche and they offer specialized service across global companies. As a result, the top managers of Google, Meta or Tesla can focus on their core functions and outsource numerous business challenges that are little outside of their core skills to the McKinsey consultants.

As an MBA applicant, your best bet definitely is to hire a consultant. You can focus on improving your GMAT score or boost your extracurricular activities along with managing your job and the admissions consultant can better focus on your application. With an expert’s eagle eyed approach, indeed best holds a winning strategy. Reading sample MBA essays merely will rarely equip you with the right armory to win over this battle.
