Strategy Guides
The MBA admissions process is a high-stakes exercise in marketing. Business schools are eager to look beyond a candidate’s grades and test scores to learn about the big picture of a candidate’s experiences, aspirations, interests and skills. While this presents an exciting opportunity, it also entails a significant challenge. MBA applicants must carefully evaluate their backgrounds, strategically selecting those experiences and examples that demonstrate their most valuable strengths and highlight the qualities that will resonate with each of their target schools. This core message, once developed, must then be presented clearly and convincingly across all elements of one’s application.
With more and more qualified applicants competing each year for a limited number of coveted seats, even the strongest candidates need every advantage they can get. We’ve created the Clear Admit Strategy Guides to offer just this assistance. We’ve distilled our key strategic insights and best practices into a series of detailed guides covering key pieces of the MBA application. The titles in the Strategy Guides will teach you to:
- Present your credentials for maximum impact
- Highlight your most salient strengths
- Establish a well-rounded impression
- Communicate clearly with the reader
- Speak to all of the admissions committee’s interests and concerns

I am a 29 yo black brazilian woman. I am civil engineer by the oldest civil engineer school of Brazil with full scholarship. I have been working with data since 2015 and now I am coordinator of a data team I the biggest Latin American Bank. Currently I am studying for toefl and improving my English. My main purposes joining a top tier mba are to improve my leadership skills and to learn with different people from different backgrounds (I am working in the same business since 2017).
I am originally from the UK (now a permanent resident) and went to community college (3.6 gpa), then transferred to a top 25 undergrad and severe health issues due to a disability causing me to get a 3.1 gpa. I then stayed there and did a master’s in finance with a 3.8 gpa. I am very passionate about giving back, especially about the homelessness epidemic. Before college I spent a year in Switzerland volunteering at homeless shelters. During college I led a campus ministry with a focus on helping the unhoused. After my experience with my disability, I started a nonprofit that has consulted with several shelters and foodbanks to help those with similar health issues as myself. I also personally raised capital to purchase and preserve an affordable multifamily property. My career has been in real estate since I graduated, but I have job hopped. My first job was 5 months, then I moved to be closer to family. My next job was for 7 months, but I quit as they were taking actions to make housing unaffordable for first time buyers. My next job was in acquisitions but I was laid off with about half the company due to the rising interest rates that affected the industry. I have been at an impact real estate private equity firm for almost 2 years in an acquisitions, development, and asset management role with a promotion. All my roles have been for REITs or PE firms. My post-mba goal is banking to better learn capital markets and long term to start an affordable real estate investment firm, perhaps in London. I would love to be a wire tap candidate, fingers crossed.
