请教申请NYU的同志们： Essay3要怎么搞啊？

既要creative，又要局限于doc./rtf./xls./txt....
这个题目大家一般都怎么处理的？给点思路吧，谢谢啦^ ^

汗,我只申请了一个MBA项目就是nyu的,所以不知道chicago的这个故事...嗯嗯, 那就用word里面贴pp的办法啦.
谢谢诸位啦^ ^

我把ppt拷到一个word文档里面，但由于nyu有文件大小限制，我还删了一些内容。

我觉得没必要介意学校会不会因为你教了ppt（或类似）而怀疑你是不是申请了chicago，学校都知道而且理解你会申请其他学校的，关键是这个ppt是不是真的impressing

银钩铁划

clearadmit的blog也提到了，Chicago也要求ppt，因此强烈不建议用这个ppt申请nyu
注意到nyu特地限制了上传文件的格式，不包括ppt，不知道6楼的怎么做到的用ppt申nyu。。。

Powerpoint is Chicago's expertise, not Wharton's.  Wharton only likes to read long essays.
I assume LZ is not applying to Chicago....  Also, it might not be a good idea to use Chicago's powerpoint for NYU.  NYU is very sentitive to people applying ot them as back up... (unless your credentials are very strong or you really are using NYU are a back up, then you shouldn't make them feel that you just moved over the Chicago one for them).
Whatever you do, you should show a lot of visuals - pictures, something interesting, something that shows a good work/non-work balance (community services, traveling, hobbies, accomplishments).  Something that shows you are a successful and fun/interesting person.  In fact, you can put pictures in Excel and Word.  Remember, these adcom people already read so many essays (BORED!!!) and they do not want to read so much in an "essay" that doesn't require words.

看以前的帖子好像说有做ppt的，那是不是要自己打印出来寄过去呢？

没有人理，难道是大家都已经结束战斗了么55。。。。

有啥建议交流一下哈^ ^

听说Chicago有道题是做ppt,如果你是做ppt的话，有可能被怀疑是一份ppt两用。。。。。
