Today we’re posting a series of links to articles that we have collected over the years, to help you learn about learning, understand your understanding, and deepen your ability to gain insight into yourself — insights that you can use in practical ways. One of those very practical ways is figuring out what to do […]
Continue reading...You. Are. Amazing.
America is in a shambles but EssaySnark wants to put the focus on YOU. No matter what happens from here: You have done something incredible. If you got any applications submitted this season, you are a success story. Honestly. We’re not just blowing smoke. You went through A LOT in 2020. No matter who you […]
Continue reading...If you’re willing to blur the lines… where does it end?
Say you fudged a number here or there. Like, maybe you earned a $50,000 bonus one year, but someone told you that it’s possible to look like you make too much money to get into bschool, so you reported it on your app as a $20,000 bonus instead. Or maybe you heard that the schools […]

Strange times indeed. We have a number of active clients who have been working on their MBA applications with us — or shall we say, not so much working, because if you’re anything like EssaySnark, the ability to concentrate has been fairly significantly impaired due to all of the stressors that are hitting right now. […]

We’ve been reading essays and looking at resumes and checking out all the strategies you’ve been putting together to try to make it into a […]

One thing is likely true for you: You have probably lost track of what day it is. That whole “first of September” thing that you had on your calendar, when you planned to have most of your apps already done? Yeah, that date came and went quickly didn’t it? We’re now already at September the […]
Continue reading...($) Should we really have to point this out?
We try to make it clear around here that we don’t edit essays (and we don’t think you should have them edited either). We don’t tell you what to write. We do critiquing and give massive amounts of feedback. We provide coaching and offer gobs of best practices on how to do this thing you’re […]
Continue reading...Trying to walk the talk
For as long as we’ve been the Snarkiest Snarker of MBA Essays, we’ve had a program providing support to military candidates trying for business school. We see honor in choosing to serve the country, and we respect that choice, and have wanted to offer resources to a segment of the applicant population that was considered […]
Continue reading...So what are you going to do about it?
Probably the hardest part of all of this coronavirus stuff is the massive uncertainty. (Unless you have experienced the loss of a family member personally, in which case, the hardest part is absolutely what you are going through, and EssaySnark is very, very sad for that.) We’re doing our best to offer straightforward fact-based analysis […]
