Essays
                                                                You must respond to the following essay prompts:

• Why are you pursuing an MBA and why now? How will the distinct Tuck MBA contribute to achieving your goals and aspirations? What particular aspects of Tuck will be instrumental in your growth? (2000 characters)
• Tell us who you are. How have your values and experiences shaped your identity and character? How will your unique background contribute to Tuck and/or enhance the experience of your classmates? (2000 characters)
• Describe a time when you meaningfully invested in someone else’s success without immediate benefit to yourself. What motivated you, and what was the impact? (2000 characters)
  

“You can find advice and essay guidance from many outside influencers and websites; however, my colleagues and I want you to hear directly from those of us who are reading and evaluating your essays.”
—Patricia Harrison, Director of Admissions, Evaluation and Yield

All reapplicants must respond to an additional essay prompt:

• How have you strengthened your candidacy since you last applied? Reflect on how you have grown personally and professionally and how your understanding of Tuck has developed. (2000 characters)
  

The following essay prompt is optional:

• Please provide any additional insight or information that you have not addressed elsewhere (e.g., atypical choice of references, factors affecting academic performance, unexplained job gaps or changes). Complete this question only if you feel your candidacy is not fully represented by this application. (2000 characters)
  

“Rest assured; this is not a test. We will not think less of you if you do not submit an extra essay here. Most of you will likely not need to use this section at all, and for those of you who do—own your past.”
—Patricia Harrison, Director of Admissions, Evaluation and Yield
Review guidance on how this section is best used and when to refrain from using it altogether: Tuck Admissions Insights: Optional Information Section

The best responses to essay prompts are clear, succinct, forthright, thoughtful, genuine, and so distinctly personal that only you could have written them. We expect that your essays are entirely accurate and exclusively yours. Using tools or professional services to create content that is not your own violates Tuck’s admissions policies and Academic Honor Principle.

论文解析

今年的3篇文书每道题都做了细微的调整。一个是字数方面，从限制字数（300 words）调整为限制字符数（2000 characters），虽然仍为300字左右，但对遣词造句的要求更加精细。二是在去年文书题目的基础上，在细节方面做了调整，因此在回答上将有方向性的改变。

第一题是典型的 Career Goal + Why MBA + Why School 问题，旨在评估申请人的职业目标是否明确，并且是否与Tuck的资源和文化相匹配。在这个题目里，你可以很好地展现自己的成就、影响力、职业抱负，和与学校的契合。第三问是在去年前两问的基础上新增的，一方面传达出需要申请人进行更深入、更具体、更具个性化的研究和对齐，另一方面体现出学校期待申请人不仅是知识和技能的获取，也包含软性能力的提升（领导力、沟通、团队协作、适应力、批判性思维）、视野的拓展（全球化、行业洞察、社会责任感）、思维模式的转变、自信的建立以及建立终身网络等能力。
