Essays showcase that side of the applicants which other parts of their application package don’t reveal . Your essays bring to light how you go about making decisions, how you are influenced by other people, how you sail through challenges, and how you grow from those experiences. Also, essays are used as tools to know if you are a good match for your target school.
Since you can essays are your greatest tools to reveal your unique personality to the Ad Com, you need to give your self enough time in crafting them.
Keep in mind the following tips to make your essays shine:
1. Provide real life examples: Answer your essay question through real -life examples and let your voice come through your essays. B-Schools want to know you through your essays, so do not hesitate to share your personal experiences/stories that illustrate your personal and professional qualities unique to you.
2. Answer all parts of essay question:Break down all parts of the essay question and try to give equal footage to all of them.
3. Be specific: Read the essay question carefully and answer it precisely The ‘how’ part of your answer is as important as ‘what’ part.
4. Demonstrate your Impact: Do not forget to state what impact/ contribution you are going t o make to the school.
5.Edit for Grammar Errors:Get your essays edited for sentence structure, punctuation, grammar and spelling errors. These errors are poor refection on your candidacy and can jeopardize your chances of chances of admission.
6.Stick to word limit: Stay within word- limit) and try to be as precise as you can (5 % over or below word limit is considered ok).
I hope it helped.
