essay 需字字真实么?

对于我这样experience 不是很丰富的人来说, 很多essay 题目不好写, 我想知道essay内容能否虚构一些.  或者是真实的事情, 但局部虚构, 又或者大部分真实, 略微虚构?

请前辈们指点这个应该如何把握?

谢谢!

lets not talk about fabricating something in essays, obviously it is a caveat here. well, i believe people are allowed to 'beautify' their raw materials to bring out the best part of their experience, i.e. what you think is more important than what you do. many successful essays I've seen are those putting common experience in new and inspirational perspectives. so even if what we did was not magnificent (believe me, most mba applicants are normal people), we still can find a few shining points. And the extend to which you can magnify your experience is a judgement call...you may go some further, but not too far to be spotted by the adcom as unreal. after all they read through tons of essays and have intuition to know what is true and what not.

Agree. Your essays should be built on your own stories. If you forged stories, first, you can not write a good details, second, the adcom would possibly find. But you can be creative to make your essays interesting and unique.

我过去是老师。写起来更难。

是很难，但他非常重要。多难也要写得非常好，否则就是申请自杀。

啥叫"merge"？

呵呵，故事首先要可能，比如，张三的事情，用在自己身上，但绝对不要生造，比如，神仙的事情安在自己身上。其次，要可信，比如，隔壁张三的事情用在自己身上，但绝对不要发昏，比如，中南海xxx的事情用在自己身上。

仅此而已。

UP!!!
