I recently got a rejection from Tuck.
My essays were a bit long I think.

2nd- 587
3rd- 447

My interview went well according to me.

My request to the candidates who got it. Can they share their profile and some tips on essays with the ones who got dinged.
I applied to Stanford, Tuck, Haas, Tepper and UCLA. After a ding from Tuck I am not very hopeful of my chances. I am hoping to get some help from the experts here who have been admitted and what I can do to strengthen my chances. Is it possible for the experts or admitted students to review my essays from one school and provide feedback? I must state that I spent a considerable amount of time in preparing my applications and writing my essays along with getting them reviewed from friends.
Thanks a lot for your time and I am really hoping to get some positive replies to my call for help.
