还有个问题,这篇文章是以第一人称写还是以一个student adcom的视角写?
作者: jackkung    时间: 2010-1-10 22:20
我是以adcom的角度
之前看到某篇類似的(Kellogg舊題), 也是adcom的角度

Here comes the analysis on this essay from www.clearadmit.com:



This question is a new take on an old classic, which asked applicants to provide an assessment of their file as a member of the Admissions Committee.  This is one of the trickier questions out there in the MBA admissions world, as the request that applicants take a third-party perspective on their own applications virtually prohibits them from introducing any new information in this essay, as they must evaluate their own candidacy based upon the information that they have already submitted. The key is to use this response to draw the inferences that you would hope the reader to make based on your application, perhaps explicitly commenting on themes that run through your experience or drawing connections between your goals and some aspect of your background.



Wish it helps. Good luck!

似乎第一人称也ok.


Essay 3 – Assume you are evaluating your application from the perspective of a student member of the Kellogg Admissions Committee. Why would your peers select you to become a member of the Kellogg community? (600-word limit)

No doubt, many candidates will wonder whether they should respond to this question in first person or third person. We would guess that most applicants will choose to respond in third person, but there really is no right answer. What is important is that your content is compelling.

Because this essay is so open-ended, we strongly recommend that you outline your thoughts and try to avoid reviewing every single element of your profile. Many candidates will fail to write a compelling essay and will instead give brief attention to their transcript, GMAT score(s), professional history, community activities, personal life, etc. You only have six 600 words, so give careful thought to what a dispassionate outsider might think about you, and play to your strengths rather than surveying everything. In short, we encourage candidates to think in terms of anecdotes for this essay and not default to simply “listing” qualities and accomplishments.

A strong self-assessment will prepare you to not merely reiterate experiences but to instead effectively bring color to certain experiences and attributes and then apply them to the Kellogg community. By doing so, you will not only reveal your strengths and place them in a unique light, but you will also show your fit with Kellogg and prove to the Admissions Committee that you profoundly understand how you will contribute.

你可以假设……

要注意在校学生他关心的是什么。他关心的是你能给class带来什么新的东西,以及你这人是否好相处;因为他是在给自己招同学招校友。另外也要兼顾academic(因为教授关心),你的goal是否现实(career center关心),你对学校的motivation(adcom关心),你对学校community的未来贡献(alumni关心)。所以你写的东西要首先满足他的喜好,其次也要能帮助他说服学院各方面人。



特别有趣的是,每个学校的adcom都说申请者最容易犯的错误,就是写自以为adcom喜欢听的东西,而不是写真实的自己。这篇文章恰恰就是给申请者一个机会,让你考虑你自以为adcom(特定为在校生)喜欢的是什么。
