标题: [讨论]MIT的optional essay

4. Special circumstances related to your academic program which you would like to mention (up to 500 words).



请教大家这里最主要是用来解释GPA低啥的吗?我的GPA不太低,但是想借此提提我大学的生活,譬如课外活动,在实验室的工作收获和双学位的学习,是不是也可以?多谢!!!

I think it's similar to the HBS essay one...

Special circumstances related to your academic program which you would like to mention (up to 500 words). 应该是在Special circumstances 环境下,课外活动,在实验室的工作收获和双学位的学习对你的 academic program 影响比较大,而且有特点,如果在essays中其他地方没有提到的话,这个地方可以好好发挥一下。如果仅仅是流水帐,那么Sloan会怀疑你的理解能力的。毕竟Sloan比较侧重你在essays中的思考过程。

多谢楼上几位!


to dream2008,如果我侧重描述这些活动对个人personality,而不是academic ability的影响,是不是算偏题了呢?

personality,如果表现在/或者与adademic相关,当然是好的,譬如,经过克服challenges,说明在学术方面你的personality是什么?等等。小姑娘,再想想。个人认为,如果写personality,如果你又没有在以前的essays中涉及,最好放在“5. Whatever else you would like the Admissions Committee to know (up to 500 words).”里写。
