Thanks bsd and leonidas.

It was a 2 year application cycle for me, but the first admit really makes it feel worth it.

Yellowjacket that's awesome, I love hearing reapplicant success stories. You rock!

Thanks jlola. You all set for Booth?

Just ask your name to be added to the roll call and one of the mods will do it. This isn't BW forums.

Actually sonibubu, I asked them to do it that way.

Trying to find everyone who is applying is a huge pain since lots of people just make a post about something totally different and expect us to figure out they are applying or they they just put a few words about applying in a post that often includes other info or questions...if they add themselves to the list at least when you see the post you know what its about.

Cleaning up the board so posting this here so its not lost.

Question to all Kellogg applicants/admits.

As I finalize Kellogg I wanted your thoughts on Essay 4.b (I wish the adcom had asked me...)

Is it advisable to avoid this question as it might be construed by Adcom that this topic was picked by an applicant in an attempt to "recycle" another school's essay?

Should I just stick with
4 A. Describe a time when you had to motivate a reluctant individual or group.
and
4 C. What do others admire about you?

Kellogg is my top choice and I'd hate to goof up on a trivial issue like an essay pick. I'm least comfortable with 4 C. but it will be manageable given I have all weekend.

Thanks all!

I think 4C and 4B are increadibly personal essays, an opportunity to set yourself apart.

In my case, sure I have convinced a reluctant individual and a group, everyone has done that...but 4B can allow you to bring some unique aspect of your story..in my case it was something very personal...i suggest dig something about your past that really is personal

4C is also anther good personal essay...really use this to tell you who you are from the day you were born till 5 min ago..

Hey,

I would agree with fresinha12. There is nuthin wrong with answering 4b. Thats wht I am doing as well. To be on the safe side, just dont pick a story right out of some competitor school essay and also dont structure the question to resemble another school's essay topic. Rather use a very personal experience (which u might have used in a different school essaty) make some cosmetic changes.

One of my recommenders has not submitted the reco yet. He said he is still working on it. But I think he just started it. I'm hoping he will get in done in time and write a good reco too.

BTW Will Kellogg consider my app for round 2 if my recommender submits 4-6 hours after the deadline.
