2010 Application Essay Questions
http://www.chicagobooth.edu/fulltime/ad ... lides.aspx

Essays
1. How did you choose your most recent job/internship and how did this experience influence your future goals? What about the Chicago Booth MBA makes you feel it is the next best step in your career at this time? (750-1000 words)

1a. FOR REAPPLICANTS ONLY: Upon reflection, how has your thinking regarding your future, Chicago Booth, and/or getting an MBA changed since
the time of your last application? (250 words)

2. Please choose one of the following (500 - 750 words):
Describe a time when you wish you could have retracted something you said or did. When did you realize your mistake and how did you handle the situation?
-or-
Describe a time when you were surprised by feedback that you received. What was the feedback and why were you surprised?

Slide Presentation
We have asked for a great deal of information throughout this application and now invite you to tell us about yourself. In four slides or less please answer the following question: What have you not already shared in your application that you would like your future classmates to know about you?

We have set forth the following guidelines for you to consider when creating your presentation.
* The content is completely up to you. There is no right or wrong approach to this essay.
* Feel free to use the software you are most comfortable with. Acceptable formats for upload in the online application system are PowerPoint or PDF.
* There is a strict maximum of 4 slides, though you can provide fewer than 4 if you choose.
* Slides will be printed and added to your file for review, therefore, flash, hyperlinks, embedded videos, music, etc. will not be viewed by the committee. You are limited to text and static images to convey your points. Color may be used.
* Slides will be evaluated on the quality of content and ability to convey your ideas, not on technical expertise or presentation.
* You are welcome to attach a document containing notes if you feel a deeper explanation of your slides is necessary. However the hope is the slide is able to stand alone and convey your ideas clearly. You will not be penalized for adding notes but you should not construct a slide with the intention of using the notes section as a consistent means of explanation.

Optional Essay
If there is any important information that is relevant for your candidacy that you were unable to address elsewhere in the application, please share that information here.

bsd_lover · **Posted:** Mon May 18, 2009 3:40 pm

You folks do start early ... The very best of luck

Wow - way to start planning ahead! good luck

terp26 · **Posted:** Mon May 18, 2009 4:23 pm

unhedged · **Posted:** Mon May 18, 2009 6:02 pm

R1 here as well. At this point, Booth is my top choice school.

Well...we've got 2 zero admits to get things going for Booth this year so that might have an effect.

I'm visiting on Monday 6/1 to make my final decision about the school, but I think I'm probably in.

Sleepy · **Posted:** Tue May 19, 2009 1:07 pm

Aparently they've updated their application dates.

I'm kinda surprised, but that has the right years....

Why? Isn't it very similar to 2008/2009 season?

triple5soul · **Posted:** Tue May 19, 2009 4:26 pm

In for R1.

Because they didn't make any of the materials available for their application. I would have expected both to happen at the same time...It's nice that it's out there from a planning standpoint, but it's not really useful....yet.

Icarus · **Posted:** Wed May 20, 2009 11:26 am

Hi,

I will most probably apply in R2.

All the best everyone.

Last year ('08/'09) it was the same and, from what I recall, all schools are doing similarly this year. Many of them announced application deadlines, but on-line apps, essay topics etc. will be available soon (HBS to start this week apparently and rest in June/July).

dan2012 · **Posted:** Fri May 22, 2009 6:03 pm

R1 for me!

walker · **Posted:** Sat May 23, 2009 10:48 am

Good luck, guys!

triple5soul · **Posted:** Sat May 23, 2009 12:10 pm

I have yet to really think about themes and my "story" but creating a slide presentation (with text, images) does not seem easy...

CrushTheGMAT · **Posted:** Sun May 24, 2009 5:22 pm

I'm probably in for R2
