Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
MBAs get respect. The prestige and value of the degree have grown to the point where now the quality of the degree is determinative, says the author. Graduates from top schools can earn as much as 50 to 100 percent more than those who graduate from lower-ranked schools. Montauk, president and founder of Education USA, which assists business school applicants, has thoroughly researched MBA programs for this work. Each chapter explores a step in the process, from the decision to apply to surviving once accepted. The chapters on selecting the right program, marketing yourself, and writing essays provide exceptionally valuable information and tips. For any library that serves undergraduate business school candidates, this is essential; recommended for other larger collections.

This guidebook on how to approach all aspects of the MBA application process is very helpful, and I strongly recommend it. However, one must be realistic when applying to the top MBA programs, and this aspect needs to be emphasized more. Interested in studying finance, I was fortunate enough to get into one of my top choices (Univ. of Chicago), but failed to get into a number of other programs that are equally or less competitive. This surprised me since I have substantial international work experience with excellent grades and a high GMAT score, and I devoted a great deal of time and effort to my essays. I know that my letters of recommendation were also very strong. Because of the sheer volume of highly qualified applicants, even if you follow all of the recommendations in this book, you may not get in. Unless you have a 3.7+ GPA and a 730+ GMAT and incredible work experience, I would recommend that you apply to more schools than Montauk suggests: go for at least 8 if you can manage it.
Also, some of the overly detailed recommendations by Montauk are questionable. For example, when you dress for the evaluative interview, he says that your shirt should be professionally cleaned, pressed, and starched. That's a bit over-the-top. If I'm going to be evaluated negatively for wearing a self-ironed shirt, then the interviewer and the school can go to hell. Let's get real. Nevertheless, most of the recommendations are insightful and helpful.
If you are applying to a top MBA program, good luck! It's an exhausting process, but hopefully you will be rewarded in the end with an acceptance letter. If so, I know you will agree that it's definitely worth the effort!

This book will see you down the long, tricky road of business school admissions. It is organized, well-written, and provides practical (though innovative) tips for marketing oneself to top MBA programs. The author addresses specific weaknesses/assets and how best to capitalize upon them in you applications. Best of all, he author takes the fear and uncertainty out of essay writing by providing keen insight into what B-schools are looking for. During the most crucial period of the MBA application process, I had to leave the US unexpectedly for 9 months for work. Fortunately, I took Richard Montauk's book along. It enabled me to plan out a strong (and ultimately successful) strategy and organize the submission of my applications despite being far from schools and recommenders. This book is truly different from the rest of the guides out there. Fabulous.

Although it will still be your story and credentials that get you into b-school, this book certainly helps to put together a solid application.
For me as an international student the book's been tremendously helpful in pointing out what matters to b-school admission boards (and illustrated the ridiculous degree of exaggeration apparently required in numerous essay and recommendation samples).
However, I would recommend to deviate from Montauk's typical "I'm the greatest dude on earth"-punchline at times to avoid an all-too-slick set of essays.
Nevertheless, great book - got into HBS...
