Would love it if you can have a look at my essay
As per my experience, Oxford had the shortest list - just one major essay, and that was on a statistic or a trend that is shocking. But it most certainly is a learning experience! I always thought writing was my strong point, seemingly not quite so...
Let me forward you what I wrote. Thank you for the offer MBADecoder

Strange...I got a super curt dinge letter from Said. Strange cuz every single professional told me that said was ideal fit for me....So i cant figure out the reasons. I wish I could ask the AdCom, but letter clearly states that said doesn't provide feedback.
Feeling so very awful! Anyone else in my shoes - confused and rejected?

So sorry to hear that BooYaah. That must be very painful.
However, don't lose hope. My guess is that your application itself was not competitive, although you may have an awesome profile.
Writing essays does not come easily to most people and Oxford does have a long list of essays, so you've got to make sure you present an impressive and coherent story together.
Don't lose heart...its a learning process for every applicant.
