How Personal Did You Get In Your Personal Essay?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys...

 

So I understand that a personal essay is supposed to reflect the applicant, but how personal did you guys get? Did you guys put a personal example in each essay? Some of them are opinion, so I'm just not sure if a personal experience would be relevant? 

ie. the altruism question kind of just asks what you think...

 

Please let me know.

thanks for that post ^^
 

I've seen a few different opinions on this. I think the best post I've read was incorporate personal experience if it makes sense and strengthens your answer, don't force them in if they don't fit. The questions have clusters built right in, so your answer should reflect you in regards to clusters whether you have personal experiences in there or not. I do agree with Bambi personal experiences are a very good way of show casing yourself though
