Msu video essay

Make sure you have a good working camera, mic, a silent room, a good and neutral background. Make full use of the practice questions to ensure the response ‘look’ good apart from the content

Many MBA applicants upload their videos on YouTube. So there’s no dearth of sample video essays if you search online. You could look at them for ideas. The challenging part is to locate the good videos that were successful. US News hosts a sample video essay that helped get the MBA applicant into Kellogg.

You would be given an essay topic beforehand (no impromptu stuff here) but don’t have an option – you HAVE to submit a video response to it. Apart from ISB which had it a few years back, the only one we are aware of is Georgetown University, McDonough School of Business (the prompt is again – introduce yourself).

The tone of the interview is relaxed and conversational, typically lasting around 30–40 minutes. Within this session, you will have ample time to ask any questions you may have about Broad or the MBA program. While low key in tone, we expect that you will treat our evaluative interview process as you would a professional interview.
