一定请斑竹和各位参谋一下

很绝望，ESSAY的WHY MBA怎么也缩不到500个字，三家公司8年经验呢。别的ESSAY也没有合适的地盘写工作经历。

我可不可以在essay里基本不提经历（因为一提起来就一大堆），仅凭resume（介绍工作职能）和推荐信（介绍工作业绩）就把我的工作情况全部写掉？这样会不会觉得很假？ESSAY里不写工作成绩是不是不大正常？

ESSAY里只是把工作的变换历程写一下，把对方MBA的好处写一下就差不多该500了。

苦恼。。，多谢。。。

500字的why MBA确实比较少见。

建议你重点写一个职业经历，从这个职业经历突出你为什么要读MBA和你与别的相同类型申请者的不同点。另外两个工作可以一笔带过。

比如有一个consultant，两年以后跳槽自己创业，我建议他重点也自己创业的体会和艰辛。因为consultant申请者太多，讲consultant的故事不容易做到outstanding。

Yale和Tuck都有一个essay，要求你在500字里面说清楚Why MBA, career goal和past experience。

想要在500字里面解释清楚是不太容易的，你只能挑出工作中最精华的部分，然后结合自己的GOAL，点明why MBA，呵呵。

谢谢各位。

我工作了3家公司，那是不是应该重点提第3家公司呢？第3家才工作了20个月，其实第二家5年才比较好多说话的。

还有IVEY的3篇ESSAY都规定在250个字内的，我还没来得及发愁呢。

祝大家新年好！

我认为Ross 的第二篇和第三片篇都是传统学校的why MBA。

2. Describe the initiatives you have taken over the past two years to develop professionally. (500-word
maximum)

3. What career goals have you set for yourself and how will a Ross MBA support the achievement of
these goals? How will you utilize the opportunities at Ross to co-create an MBA experience that is
right for you? How will you enhance the experience of other members of the Ross community?
(500-word maximum)

我就把别的学校1000字的why MBA截成两半成了Michigan essay， 当然why Michigan另写。

这是rotman的所有essay。虽然有opptional的essay，但是专门写工作经历，又可能有重复的。

1. Discuss your personal and professional development over the past five years and describe how these changes have led you to choose to do your MBA at this time. What are your career goals and how will a Rotman MBA help you to achieve them?
2. One of the Rotman School's underlying principles is the value of one; this reflects the belief that each member of the Rotman community has unique needs and talents. What are your greatest talents and/or abilities and how would each enhance the experience of your classmates?
(Please limit your answer to 250 words)
3. Imagine that ten years from now a colleague is describing you to a new employee. What will s/he say about you that you are not known for now? How will you achieve these new skills?
Please limit your essay to 250 words.
4. Describe a professional experience when you did not live up to your full potential. What would you do differently if you had to do it over again?
Please limit your essay to 250 words.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Is there anything that you think the Admissions Committee should know which you feel has not been covered by the rest of the application? If you believe your credentials and essays represent you fairly, do not feel obligated to answer this question.  

上面第一篇要求500字以内的，我漏了贴了
