Essay Analysis and Tips from ACCEPTED
Essay 1.
What do you see yourself doing immediately upon graduation and what would you like to do ten years from now? Describe why this path attracts you. What experiences have convinced you to pursue it? Why do you need an MBA, especially one with UNC’s approach to business education, to proceed down your chosen path. For more tips on writing about post-MBA goals, please see MBA Goals 101.
Essay 2.
Everyone has a story. What’s yours? What makes you tick? What would you like the admissions committee to know about you — you the human being, the individual? What hobbies and experiences will differentiate you from the IT guy, consultant, real estate developer, or banker that the adcom just read about? How will your perspective contribute to the classroom and community at Kenan-Flagler?
Essay 3.
This is pretty straightforward. Just answer it. You may also want to highlight professional preparation that you have already had in quantitative areas.
Kenan Flagler explicitly says that it's important for its students to have a "working knowledge" of financial accounting, statistics, microeconomics, and calculus. If you don't have it, get it.
Essay 4.
My favorite: The optional essay. A gift allowing you to give the adcom one more reason to admit you.
