School Strategy
Let’s discuss how the Kellogg MBA application differs from other schools.
Kellogg does not have a traditional career goals essay. Instead, it asks for your “why”, goals and accomplishments in individual short answer questions.
The application is made up of two main essays of 450 words each. Both of these are quite different from other school essays. This means you won’t be directly able to recycle material from other schools, which means Kellogg’s application will probably take you longer than others schools.
In addition, Kellogg requires all candidates to complete a video interview with Kira Talent. You can prepare for this using our simulations in the Video Interviews section of MBAconsultant.com.
So all-in-all, the Kellogg MBA is a big application that should be tackled independently – not treated as a last-minute extra application.
