HBS SnarkStrategies guide – for free for a *very* limited time!

May 31, 2011 by EssaySnark - Discusses Harvard 5 Comments

Hey you Brave Supplicants…. OK, we were busy this weekend. We churned out the next SnarkStrategies Guide to 2011 Applications … this one on Harvard!

We’re going to tweak the Scribd settings so that it gives you (most of) the goods in a free preview. This will be available for a seriously limited time for any of you super-on-top-of-it types.

The same content is also being published on Amazon as we speak (have we mentioned how lame their process is? Not only does it take several DAYS but it also kills our beautiful formatting and takes a huge effort to babysit… but that’s none of your concern, Brave Supplicant). UPDATE: HBS SnarkStrategies Guide available for the Kindle (version1.01) and as an actual BOOK (paperback, expanded print-only version 2.0).

So, stay tuned for more links in the near future, so that you can buy this puppy for yourself. The Harvard SnarkStrategies Guide is about 28 pages, almost double the length of the original Columbia one (which is still available of course — thank you to the Brave Supplicants who’ve already purchased it!).

We invite anyone tackling their HBS essays to — oh wait. In the SnarkStrategies Guide, we actually tell you NOT to start with the Harvard essays. (You’ll have to read it yourself to learn our recommended approach this year!).

Want help with your HBS essays? The Harvard MBA essay questions this year are similar to what they’ve asked in past years — but different enough to throw many people for a loop. EssaySnark offers MBA essay help on Harvard Business School/HBS essays. The SnarkStrategies Guide for Harvard Essays teaches you in a quick step-by-step format how to get through the essay writing process efficiently, and develop essays of impact that show your profile to the adcom in the best light possible. With a super-competitive business school like Harvard, your MBA application needs to be perfect. Get a headstart on your HBS essays with actionable insights and practical, insightful advice for writing to your strengths. This is the first Harvard MBA essay guide available — make the most of it! EssaySnark wishes you the best.

So who the heck is EssaySnark, anyway?!

We're the snarky experts in MBA admissions!

Sometimes amused and often appalled by what candidates write in their MBA applications to top bschools, EssaySnark created this little blahg to share common mistakes. Learn from them and avoid making admissions directors laugh (or want to hurl) when they read your essays. If you are hoping to have your essay reviewed anonymously on the blahg for free, submit it for consideration.

    Access is now being restricted… the whole enchilada is no longer available on the free preview… you can still see lots of the good stuff though!

    I managed to take a look yesterday when it was on free preview and the advice is fantastic. I don't know who EssaySnark is but for anyone who's looking to go to HBS, this guide is definitely a worthwhile investment! 🙂
