What are you looking for as you read the essays? Are there common mistakes that applicants should try to avoid? One key thing they should keep in mind as they sit down to write them? SC: We are looking for people who can engage with abstraction and who write clearly. We take the essays very seriously. They are another means by which we make the assessment of who will benefit most from our program and vice versa. That being said, the only element we weight disproportionally highly is the interview. As for mistakes to avoid, things to keep in mind – it is not as simple that. There are common mistakes, certainly. To be unclear, to make assertions that are unsubstantiated – those are mistakes you should avoid. But there is really no easy rule to this. You have to have read a lot, written a lot and thought a lot. Since the interview is weighted more than other portions of the application, I will provide some words of advice for it. Make sure the things you are supposed to know about you know about. If you work in risk in a large institution, for example, you should expect to be asked to develop an argument about risk – not about leadership. Where you should be most comfortable is where you will be most tested. Stay tuned for more interview excerpts from the admissions directors of other top MBA programs!
