Here’s a question that a BSer asked us:
quick question you guys about applications in general – is everything *really* looked at on a holistic basis? I ask because obviously, in sharing only one of my essays with you fine folks, I got one response, but after framing up my profile, etc., it was a different one. I’m trying to get my head around this whole complete package thing, especially since applicants tend to focus on things within their control (essays, general online app, gmat) and it’s easy to get lost in the weeds with that stuff. I didn’t realize it at the time, but it seems like a good sign if everything comes together (i.e., your essays support what you’ve put in the online app, and your recs support the stories in the essay, etc.).
What do you guys think about the whole “holistic” notion of the process? BS or truth?

In fact we do! All you need to do is run a simple search on the front page of our site where the mag-glass icon is.
The 2 hits at the top when you run the search “no gmat required” both talk about the EMBA:

(However, we happen to know that you’re a spammer, since you tried to put a link on that request – the school you’re spamming for should be ashamed. We’ll be sure to never discuss them on the blahg in the future. Lame lame lame.)
