It is ironic that there is no 'F' in the word 'MBA Admission'. I would love to pluggin an 'F' before and after each letter. The 'F' stands for Friends. And where will my essays be without all those friends to help me out.
Do not get me wrong! I still have not reached the bad state where I shamelessly ask my friends to pen the Essays for me. As of now they are my support system. Some are brutal - waiting like a hungry lioness for the fresh essay to popup on their inbox, and some are like parents - 'Why would you do use that word?', and again some are like seasoned editors - with my essays coming back via return mail, neatly commented in the margin with anecdotal suggestions on how to improve. And an unique critique of the lot is my dearest wife. She loves everything I write! After seeing the brutal treatments from other editors she currently is trying very hard to change her outlook and really look for places to change. And she made some wonderful suggestions that tied my essay sets together.
Overall I am in a good shape with my essays. One school's is done. It is a challenge to work with word limits when Essays pretty much want you talk about your whole life. Still, that is one of the main aspect tested; concision in communication.
If this essay set does not win me an interview and an admission, I will be sure that I missed the bus for some other factor - not essays. Still I will sleep well at night with the satisfaction that I gave my best shot.
