Just wanted to express our gratitude to those of you who have been hanging out here lately.

As you’ve seen, we’ve been doing lots of thinking about what this situation means for everyone — not just those interested in getting an MBA, but everyone. We’re concerned.

We’re grateful that you’re coming around to hear what we have to say.

We’re especially grateful to those who’ve signed up for the monthly membership. Thank you for supporting the blahg.

But even if you’re only coming for the freebie posts, we’re still grateful. We like having all of you here, and we appreciate the comments and questions we’re receiving.

To make it even easier to stay up with our latest thoughts on coronavirus and the MBA (or coronavirus in general) you can now follow the EssaySnark blahg:

Sign up for the 'Snark via email

Enter your address to get weekday blahg posts by email.

 
 
Signing up with your address gets you each day’s post from the Snark in your inbox. We promise not to sell your information, and you can unfollow at any time. If you’re not a paying member, you’ll still get emails with the premium posts but they’ll be truncated, like they are here. If you are a paying member of the blahg and you decide to follow us to get emailed posts, please remember that it’ll be a two-step process to get rid of us in the future: You’ll need to cancel your paying membership on the account screen, and you’ll separately need to unfollow the blahg.

We do appreciate the trust you’re putting in us, and we want to be more accessible to you by giving you the option to get the ‘Snark in your inbox.

Over the next few days, we’re going to be answering some questions that came in from Brave Supplicants who are pondering what to do with their future MBA plans, and continuing to talk about the impact of coronavirus on higher ed and business schools and life in general. Hopefully you’re doing OK amidst all of these changes. If you have questions we can try to help with, lay ’em on us in the comments, or you can post them in SnarkCenter and we’ll see what we can do to come up with a logical framework to work through answers with you.

Stay safe, folks, and try to stay sane. It’s gonna be a rough week for all of us.

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.

Want EssaySnark's personal assistance with your MBA applications? Start with our menu of consulting services and please read the Help FAQ to learn how we operate. Still have questions after doing all that? Email Team EssaySnark at gethelpnow at essaysnark dot com.

Good luck on your apps, Brave Supplicant!
