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.

Now I am preparing for my GMAT tests. The course books Turbocharge Your GMAT and Official Guide For GMAT are very helpful. I think the combination of these two books is very good. What I like the most about Turbocharge Your GMAT course is Vocabulary lists. The other books don't provide such lists, but for me as a foreigner it is very important to learn the words that may appear in GMAT. For example, I was afraid not to understand a task in math section or to misunderstand it, and not to give correct answer to relatively easy question just because I didn't understand the data or the question. But after I learned Math Vocabulary list I very seldom misunderstand a task. Now the hardest GMAT task for me is Reading comprehension, because my vocabulary sometimes is not enough to understand a text, especially if it is historic matter. So now I am learning words from Vocabulary lists. Now I study hard every day, because I realize I am at a disadvantage in comparison to test takers, whose native language is English.
