Essays are important. It is in your essays that you are able to explain yourself. All the time you spent thinking about why
you want to attend Business School and why you feel ready to do this now will pay off in the essays.
Manhattan Review's admissions consulting team can offer you expert advice on essays and the application process.
We recommend the following method of tackling your essay:
- Match yourself to the school.
- Determine what the question is asking.
- Consider how to answer the question: Brainstorm.
- Organize. Select the aspects of yourself to emphasize and back them up with examples / stories / anecdotes from your experience. Put this information into an outline format that you find comfortable.
- Write the essay, paying attention to format.
- Make revisions.
- Have someone read it over.
The guidelines around which we suggest engaging in the essay writing process are the following:
 |
Convince your reader |
 |
Distinguish yourself |
 |
Demonstrate sincerity |
 |
Write in a fashion that keeps the reader's attention |
To do this we suggest the following:
(1) Select different and unique, but honest experiences. You may want to expand upon an experience to make it seem more unique.
Try to select those experiences that make you a unique candidate.
(2) Convey your experience honestly. The admissions committee will notice the difference between extreme embellishment and
sincerity and depth.
(3) It is in your writing that you have the opportunity to demonstrate your personality. One important way of doing this is
through your style. Within your essays you want to continue to keep the reader's attention. Try to use the 1st person singular,
use "I" and avoid "we". Avoid using the passive voice as well as 'to be' verbs.

I took the GMAT yesterday and got......680 (unofficial score). Needless to say I am delighted, if somewhat stunned. I never thought I'd score 100 points higher than last time around. My maths improved the most (from 32nd percentile to 56th percentile) and I was in the 95th percentile in my verbal. If I'd had a few more weeks I'm sure I could have improved my maths score even more, but I'm happy with 680. Thanks for all your help and the excellent classes. They really were invaluable and worth every minute. -Mathew (This student took our 28-hour long course in London.) Read More... |
