\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Please show you have a clear direction for your goal post-MBA.\u00a0 Good essays will emphasize what an applicant wants to do while at Johnson and how you will use this experience to accomplish your goal.<\/p>\n

Part III:\u00a0 Character Essay (400 word maximum for chosen question), please choose one of the following to write about:<\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

a.\u00a0You are the author for the book of Your Life Story.\u00a0 Please write the table of contents for the book.\u00a0 Note: Approach this essay with your unique style.\u00a0 We value creativity and authenticity.<\/em><\/p>\n

b.\u00a0Describe a situation taken from your personal or professional life where you failed and tell us what you learned.<\/em><\/p>\n
