Did you skip it, rrai243? I want to understand if it's possible to get in without completing it, even though it is only optional.

no..I did that part..Paige..the adcom generally starts reviewing your application from the video essay so if you can give an interesting picture of yourself before she even reads your essays its a good start..

I don't think it is necessary - I didn't do it. In fact, I wouldn't unless you feel like you present yourself well and it can be a strength to your application.

In for R2. I submitted the Video essay as I felt it will give the adcom a view of my communication skills.

Hello all! I am definitely interested in applying to Jones, but I know that Marketing isn't a strong suit for the program. Should I look for alternatives or apply next year as planned? I don't think I am great candidate for admissions so late in the cycle.
