Wharton 完整保留了上个申请季的 Essay 题目，下面我们来看各篇的解析。

Essay.01
500 words

How do you plan to use the Wharton MBA program to help you achieve your future professional goals? You might consider your past experience, short and long-term goals, and resources available at Wharton. (500 words)

第一篇是职业目标文书。

Wharton 的 Goal Essay 可以说是非常标准又典型的职业目标论文，学校还贴心地在题目里给了详细的提示：考虑你过去的经历、你的短期和长期目标、以及学校的资源，谈谈你借助 Wharton 实现目标的具体计划。

文章的基础逻辑链：

1. 职业目标说明（50-100字）

开宗明义点明自己的职业目标：除了清晰而具体地描述短期职业目标外，还要阐述长期职业目标和职业热情——希望对哪个行业、社区、或地区产生积极而长远的影响。

2. 进一步阐释说明（100-150字）

解释这些目标对你个人和职业发展的重要性，并用过去的职业经历证明你已经为这些目标做了一定的准备，获得了一系列可转移的软技能和硬技能。

3. 联系Wharton的资源（250-300字）

展望你的职业目标和反思自己的既有能力，意识到还欠缺或者需要进一步提高一些专业技能，而这些正需要沃顿商学院的MBA课程来填补。具体提高的方面可以包括：

1) 学术的（课程和项目：具体提到沃顿的哪些课程或专业方向能够帮助你实现职业目标，提到你希望向哪些教授学习或参与哪些研究项目）

2)领导力的（提到你计划参与的俱乐部、活动或其他课外资源，以及它们如何帮助你实现目标）

3)人脉的（说明沃顿的校友网络如何能够为你提供支持和机会）

等等，将这些资源合理地安排到你两年的读书计划中。

最后总结你对Wharton的期待，强调你将如何充分利用沃顿的资源来实现你的职业目标。
