Megha Kosaraju, who just graduated from Kellogg in June and recently took a position as a senior strategy and innovation fellow at
Cherubin shares an example of a recent Kellogg student who, during a summer internship, was paired with an intern from another business school for a project. When the Kellogg intern finished his part, he offered to help the other intern, who was struggling to complete his section. While the other intern initially turned down the assistance, as the night went on he took the Kellogg student up on the offer.
Kosaraju explains how she leveraged the video essay as a way to showcase her personality:"I prepared a thorough response in advance for the one question I knew I'd get: 'Why Kellogg?' This is the one chance you get in your application to succinctly summarize both your story and the top things about Kellogg that will help you make the leap from your past experiences to your future aspirations.
. And while the GMAT alone won't get you into Kellogg, you still need to land in that range to be seriously considered.That's why James Both, Kellogg class of 2014, suggests extensively preparing for this mandatory exam."I enrolled in an online and at home study test prep class that offered me flexibility for preparing for the GMAT," says Both, who is now the CEO and founder of.
"Despite the financial limitations that I had in high school, I got good grades and SAT scores, and I 'raised my hand' to lead an array of extracurricular activities," says Arakawa."Even when I wasn't the most talented, I worked hard. I landed the first-chair position in the state orchestra by sheer will and determination. It didn't take money; it took hours of driving my mom and sister crazy practicing clarinet in a tiny apartment.
Nikhil Kelkar, who just joined the ranks of Kellogg alumni this year and is now in brand and product marketing at, also notes that if you're applying with deficits in your academic record, it's important to show other strengths.
