I justfinished that essay last week,sent it to my friends and then got a frustrating result.

痛苦中....

这题对我来说特好写, 因为是自己的切身经历.我启发一下你;

有没有在工作中本来不是你的责任, 然后你对此有认识, 提出建议. 这就是抓住机会

另外, 请告诉我这第4篇的字数限制, 我进不去他们的9月prog的网页, 谢!

4. Please select and answer one of the following essay questions.
a. Please tell us what you feel most passionate about in life.
b. If you were given a free day and could spend it anywhere, in any way you choose, what would you do?

我觉得其实就是谈出你自己对企业家精神的理解，entrepreneurship。

其实entrepreneurship有两方面的故事，

一个是你的创新精神，发现一种需要。

另一个是你的行动力，process-driven,是否有满足这种需要的能力。

其实哥大是个很重视entrepreneur的学校，所以谈出自己对企业家精神的理解，并结合自己的故事，应该可以的。

btw第4篇essay要求250字。
