Hello,
really need some advice for my Haas reapplication. Any suggestion would be appreciated!
I was on waitlist last year (interviewed after waitlisted) and plan to re-apply to Haas.
Their website says besides some part of the data forms, " any other application materials is optional". So my plan was to prepare a optional essay and a new recommendation letter. But today I saw it online somewhere,you better rewrite the essays as a re-applicant.
Now I only have 2 weeks left, I dont think I am able to re-write all the essays, is it ok that I just do some improvements on my last essays instead of creating whole new ones? like keeping the same story or concept? For example, I really like my answer of essay 1 (what song best express you), I could do some improvements on the original response but I am not sure if I should choose a new song for this essay?
If I really better rewirte all the essays, I may not be able to submit the application in time and may consider Round 2 but that will be not so good for a re-applicant.
Any advice please?

Hi TTin,
Because you’re a re-applicant, they already have a benchmark for you, and you need to exceed that in order to have a chance. And it’s not easy to do it.
Therefore, if you think you can improve your essays, then do it. There is no point in making a half-baked effort. And if it requires moving to R2, then why not.
The most important part, though, would be the improvement you show in your candidacy over the last application.

Hi Anil,
thanks for replying!
But as a re-applicant, i think my chances of getting in is bigger in R1?
so do u mean: re-write the essay and apply in R2 would probably better vs not re-writing essay, just optional essay+ new recommendation in R1?
If so, what's your opinion/suggestion if I could use the same story/example?
