Essay 1:

(We are interested in understanding what your goals are and how you plan to utilize your specialization to achieve your goals. It helps us in getting to know you better)*Essay 2:

Apart from the factors mentioned in the question, you may want to discuss: What topics and events interest you? How will your previous experiences influence your journey at SPJIMR? What's your personal working style and what role do you play in the groups you’re a part of? Are you the fire starter? The doer? The facilitator?)* Click
