Mr. Youngest CEO

Hi, it’s Nisha from mbaMission. You certainly have accomplished a lot at a young age, and I can see that you’re energized to take your family business to the next level! Since you haven’t provided a lot of information, I do have a lot of questions/comments:

– Are you targeting the HBS 2+2 program? Do note that to be eligible for this program, you cannot have had any full-time work experience (and had to have gone directly from your bachelors to masters program)

– HBS is not waiving the GMAT/GRE, either for regular admission or for deferred admission

– As CEO you’ve undoubtedly had a lot of responsibility, but what is the impact you’ve made on the company so far? Are you confident you’ll be able to line up strong recommenders (who have to be outside of your family)?

– If you’ve already gotten the post-grad certificate after a business undergrad, why are you interested in an MBA? What gaps do you need to fill? You’ll want to make this very clear in your application

Regarding other MBA programs to consider, Columbia is also very strong for family business.

Please reach out for a free consultation if you would like to discuss in more detail.

Hi, it’s Jennifer Jackson from Stratus Admissions. You haven’t provided much information about yourself, but from what I can see I think HBS will wonder a few things including how were you working full time while in school and also doing a post-graduate program? Are you targeting the regular HBS program since you’ve had FT work experience? It’s hard to tell from your profile how all the dates work together. Your extracurriculars seem pretty slim too with just skydiving. What are you passionate about? What impact do you want to have in the world? It’s great to be the youngest CEO, or the youngest whatever, but they WHY behind all this will really matter in MBA applications so connect the dots of your story and show why that MBA is vital to help you reach your goals and why now is the time.
