2011/2012 ESSAY QUESTIONS

  1. What are your short- and long-term goals, and how will a Chicago Booth MBA help you reach them? (600-word limit):
    • Re-applicants only: Upon reflection, how has your thinking regarding your future, Chicago Booth, and/or getting an MBA changed since the time of your last application? (300-word limit)
  2. At Chicago Booth, we believe each individual has his or her own leadership style. How has your family, culture, and/or environment influenced you as a leader? (750-word limit)
  3. Considering what you've already included in the application, what else should we know about you? In a maximum of four slides, tell us about yourself. We have set forth the following guidelines:
    • The content is completely up to you. There is no right, or even preferred, approach to this presentation.
    • There is a strict maximum of four pages, though you can provide fewer if you choose.
    • Acceptable formats for upload in the online application system are PowerPoint or PDF.
    • The document will be viewed electronically, but we cannot support embedded videos, music, or motion images. Additionally, all content MUST be included in the four pages; hyperlinks will not be viewed.
    • The file will be evaluated on the quality of content and ability to convey your ideas, not on technical expertise or presentation.
