Hi...

this question is geared toward testing your knowledge of their school and whether or not you truly understand what you want to study. If you know exactly what your goals are, then you should match it to what the school offers, such as application, theory, technology, placement, research, specific courses, student groups, hands-on courses, class discussions, seminars, etc. The reason is...if you do not know about their school or if you do not have clear goals in mind, you will not know these aspects of the school and essentially you are just applying to get into a graduate program. This, subsequently, implies that you do not have drive or actual passion for what you want to do and makes them put your application at the bottom of the pile because they will want to offer admission to someone with a clearer vision.

DO NOT focus on their reputation, their faculty, etc. 吹 in this case is useless and will be an obvious indication of the fact that you have no idea what you want and did not bother to do enough research about the school. A lot of people make this mistake, and it is very very negative on the application essays.

Anyway, this has been my experience working for several years in the MIT admissions office. I am also a graduate student at Harvard University. If you have any more questions, you can email me at tinaxue@mit.edu or tinaxue@fas.harvard.edu. I offer writing and editing services. In the past, my customers have been accepted into the top 10 business schools. This year, some of them have already received interview invites from Harvard.
