Critique of Reve Counseling Blog

Filed under Graduate school blog reviews, November 22nd, 2009 by MBA Application Analyst

The Reve Counseling Blog offers consulting services to people who are seeking admission to graduate programs from all over the world. The blog is a great tool that supports the services of Reve Counseling. Here, the visitors will find thorough discussions about graduate programs in different schools. It also provides valuable advice or tips to its readers.

What makes it a good read

One very informative post tackled the letter of recommendation as an admission requirement to graduate programs. The writer shares helpful advice in fulfilling this requirement. For example, identifying the best people for the recommendation was discussed. It highlighted the importance of finding different people who will showcase the applicant?s varied strengths.

If you are applying to UCLA Anderson, it is highly recommended that you read the post about the essay questions. You will find a thorough discussion of the essay questions in this blog. Important insights in properly answering the essay questions are also shared. The blog post caters to both first-time applicants and re-applicants.

Furthermore, readers will find many posts on essay analyses and deadlines from different graduate schools such as Columbia Business School, Dartmouth Tuck, Harvard Business School, Stanford Graduate School of Business, UC Berkeley Haas, University of Chicago Booth, and Wharton. Like the post for UCLA Anderson, visitors will find much valuable information here. The different essay questions are discussed, and tips on answering them are provided. You will also see the deadlines for submission.

What I think about the layout and design

The layout of the blog is clean and simple. This is a plus for readability. On the front page of the blog, you will find the blog posts in chronological order. I found the list of recent blogs very helpful, instead of having to scroll all the way down the page. There is also a list of the different categories of posts. However, I will find it more helpful if the tabs were placed on top of the page.
