Last time, I went to UChicago for info session. A second year student mentioned that the most important essays are #1 & 2 (why MBA, why Chicago, etc). The other two essays are sort of "not-so-important". Although it may just be his personal opinion, hopefully it can give you some comfort - don't spend too much time and it does not have to be scifi. I did not relate the issue to any famous people or big event.

It's interesting. Maybe they just want to see some intriguring or funny story.
