All applications will ask you to present yourself in writing via a group
of essays often referred to as the "personal statement.." The number, length
and subject of essays varies tremendously from school to school, but all
schools share the same objectives. They want your essays to give a portrait
of who you are, what motivates you, and what your personal and professional
goals might be. In addition, your essays will provide a sense of how well
you communicate. Do you have a way with words? Do you get to the point? Do
you communicate with confidence? Finally, your essays will reflect strongly
how seriously you take your application, and by extension, your MBA project.
Let's look at each point one at a time.
MBA essays is the "personal statement" for business school admissions.
However, there are many personal statements you have to write, typically
from 2 to 8 essays. Each question may ask you different questions, such as
"Why MBA", "What is your plan after MBA?", etc. Most business school

class. Therefore, you should put more weight on them.
