大家的essay写完了自己看都觉得满意吗？我怎么横看竖看都觉得没写的特有激情似的啊？

个人体会,文章如果能一口气写下来最好,思维连贯可以写得比较有激情. 主线,策略,素材定下,后面要做得无非是表达的更好一些,让别人改文章,一般都是proof reading一下,改些自己看不出来的拼写语法错误,毕竟最了解你的人还是你自己.

to messmess: 了解学校就象了解客户一样,不放过一切可以掌握的资料是对对方的诚意,也有知己知彼,打有把握仗的意思. 如果你面试碰到那位assistant director,刚好你之前在bw上看过他的访谈,那你发挥的余地就很多了.

申请到第四所学校我已经筋疲力尽.

"Passion" is a double-edge sword. There is a chance that you hit the jackpot with your ultra-passionate essay.  The flip side is, you are at the risk of hitting the wrong nerve of the adcom.  Applying to a bschool, you want to paint yourself as a matured professional, and unfortunately, too much passion may work against you in this aspect.  "Passion" can help you big time, but "Passion" can also backfire, especially if you are not very familiar with US culture, because there is a very thin line between arrogant and confident, and between passionate and inmature.

也就写第一个学校的时候请几个人看过，到后来的学校全都在原来基础上改来该区的。即使碰到全新的题目也没有耐心让别人看了，自己觉得差不多基本上没有语法错误就递了。。。

很多人都会经历这个过程的。我刚开始写也是天天都感觉要抓狂，一个Why MBA，我足足改了1个月才算理清楚了思路，说服了自己。先要说服自己才能说服别人的。MM别心急，it takes time。写不下去了，就放一边过几天，多读点相关的文章，寻找小故事中的大道理，寻找自己写作的风格。会越写越顺手的。Good Luck!

谢谢妹妹鼓励，但愿我能快点抓出俩学校来。

谢谢GG提醒。可是我怎么知道是谁面试我呢？难不成所有人的profile都看一遍？那也记不住啊。

Agree.Just be youself.

If you really have passion in you life, describe it .Never describe someone else in you essay.

   Good Luck

我第一个学校找了个题目覆盖最广的，从八月下旬动笔，改来改去居然到上周才定稿，简直要疯了！！！但是其它学校的大多数文章都在第一所的基础上稍微改改就好了，只有少数文章是新的，所以感觉痛苦几乎过去了，后面效率会越来越高的
