Hi Linda,
Thanks for your condolences and your reply. To be honest,I can't say that my career was adversly affected due to that. It was just the beginning of my career and I was just learning things at work front, though it affected me metally a lot but I faced all that with determination and courage. Yes, this shattered me emotionally for those and subsequent years. At the same time it gave me the reputation of a very integral and compassionate person in my society.Its been 6 yrs now and I am much settled in my personal life now. So do you recommend me to put all these into the optional essay or my recent business venture into real estate investment company or my travel adventures(trekking sort) to Indian pilgrimage in Himalayas would fit better into that?
Your advice would be highly appreciated.
Thank you for your thoughtful response.
Again, it is very difficult for me to make a specific recommendation without knowing what's in the other essays as well as what your goals and previous experience are. Include in the optional the subject matter that is most distinctive about you, reflects who you are, and reveals something not found in the other parts of the application.
Good luck!
