Business with humanity in mind means many things to different people. Please explain what business with humanity in mind means to you and how you will apply your knowledge, skills and abilities to advance this ideal over the next five years. You may elaborate on any past experience you have had which demonstrates your commitment and interest in this area (500 word maximum).
如果有留心JHU商學(xué)院的官網(wǎng)，可以發(fā)現(xiàn)“ business with humanity in mind ”是該學(xué)院的“個(gè)性簽名”。Essay題目要求學(xué)生闡述自己對這一理念的想法，其實(shí)是考察申請人與學(xué)院理念匹配度的一種嘗試。文案老師引導(dǎo)學(xué)生思考商業(yè)和人文關(guān)懷的聯(lián)系，并進(jìn)一步挖掘了學(xué)生在證券公司實(shí)習(xí)期間對于長生制藥假疫苗事件的所見所聞，呈現(xiàn)了學(xué)生對于“ business with humanity in mind ”的深度思考，同時(shí)也帶出了自己以往的相關(guān)經(jīng)歷。

The example you provide and elaborate upon may come from your professional endeavors, academic pursuits or civic engagements. (300-500 words)

5.What challenges you the most (i.e. area in need of improvement)? How have you worked to overcome this limitation? (300-500 words)
情境創(chuàng)設(shè)類的題目，需要先選擇，然后結(jié)合自己的經(jīng)歷來定點(diǎn)回答相應(yīng)的題目。要認(rèn)真閱讀題目本身關(guān)于情境的提示，因?yàn)閷懽黛`感很大程度上來源于這些提示。學(xué)生選擇了第一個(gè)prompt，分享了自己在某組織充當(dāng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者的過程中，如何成功說服一個(gè)嘗試脫離組織的成員回歸團(tuán)隊(duì)，并且取得了這位成員的諒解與認(rèn)可。學(xué)生所提供的素材是對事件的概括性陳述，在文案老師的引導(dǎo)下，補(bǔ)充了事件發(fā)展過程中的從因到果的細(xì)節(jié)，并且通過不同的細(xì)節(jié)表現(xiàn)學(xué)生的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)氣質(zhì)和“inspired others to act”。
University of Rochester, MS IN FINANCE（3道，2道必答，1道可選）
Essay 1 (Required): In 250-500 words total, respond to the following prompts:
1.Describe your short-term and long-term goals for post-MBA or post-MS.
2.Given the fluctuation of economic and industry hiring trends, identify a back-up plan should your short-term goal not be immediately attainable.
3.How does your past education and experience support your career objectives?
4.Lastly, what aspects of your intended Simon Business School program make it a good choice for your graduate study?
未來職業(yè)規(guī)劃是商科類Essay寫作中很常見的問題，有的會(huì)直接問總體的職業(yè)規(guī)劃，有的會(huì)劃分為短期和長期，有的會(huì)將短期和長期的時(shí)間段用年數(shù)界定出來。如Fordham的Essay題目會(huì)有這樣的提醒：Short term goals are considered 2 - 4 years after you have completed your MS degree and long term goals are considered 7 - 10 years after you have completed your MS degree。在回答職業(yè)規(guī)劃的時(shí)候，文案老師會(huì)引導(dǎo)學(xué)生結(jié)合自己以往的學(xué)術(shù)背景、實(shí)習(xí)經(jīng)歷和所申請項(xiàng)目在職業(yè)輔導(dǎo)方面的優(yōu)勢。
Essay 2 (Required): In 25 words or less, provide us with an interesting fact about yourself not expressed elsewhere in your application. (25 word limit)
這類題目屬于學(xué)院/項(xiàng)目的特色題目，不追求字?jǐn)?shù)，但看重學(xué)生的創(chuàng)意/創(chuàng)新。在題型的獨(dú)特性方面，類似于Duke 必寫Essay的“25 Random Things About Yourself”。
Essay 3 (Optional): Share additional information you think is important in the evaluation of your application, including any concerns you think the Admissions Committee may have regarding your candidacy. (500 word limit)
這類可選的題目，沒有特殊的情況可以不寫。所謂的特殊情況，可以參考Fordham對于其optional essay的說明：Use this essay to share information that is not presented elsewhere in your application. For example, explanation of employment gaps, academic aberrations, quantitative abilities, improvements to your candidacy if you are a re-applicant.
Brandeis, Master of Arts in International Economics and Finance（3道，必做，2道寫作，1道視頻）
1.Essay (Required): What drove you to pursue a graduate program in international economics and finance? (500-750 words)
動(dòng)機(jī)類的題目也是Essay經(jīng)�？疾斓姆较蛑�。要將這類型的題目寫得詳細(xì)而不寬泛，文案老師會(huì)引導(dǎo)學(xué)生從學(xué)術(shù)基礎(chǔ)的強(qiáng)化、項(xiàng)目優(yōu)勢和與職業(yè)規(guī)劃的匹配度幾個(gè)方面來回答。
2.Short Answer (Required): What are your career goals? (200)
關(guān)于總體的職業(yè)規(guī)劃，參考上文對于Rochester的解析。
3.Video: Applicants must also submit a brief video responding to two questions posed by the Brandeis IBS community, as well as a written response to a third question. The Video Essay is a great way for the Admissions Committee to learn a little bit more about you. You will be prompted to complete the Video Essay once you have submitted your application.
視頻面試是商科類Essay的常見題型之一，重點(diǎn)考察申請人的現(xiàn)場應(yīng)對能力、口語表達(dá)能力和邏輯思辨能力。有些項(xiàng)目會(huì)要求在提交網(wǎng)申前完成視頻面試，如JHU的商學(xué)院；有些會(huì)在提交網(wǎng)申后，學(xué)校另外用郵件發(fā)送視頻面試網(wǎng)站的鏈接，如Brandeis。面試前，文案老師會(huì)引導(dǎo)學(xué)生調(diào)試好相關(guān)設(shè)備、注意著裝得體、選擇較為明亮和安靜的環(huán)境準(zhǔn)備面試，并且提前熟悉自己的申請材料，包括簡歷和Essay。
