Career gaps essay

by scielle » Sat Nov 19, 2011 4:32 am
A bit stumped by the Haas Supplemental Information section. What's the expected format here?

Two of the five sections specifically ask for a list - clear enough.

But for the career gaps question, I assume this can be in essay format, correct? There's no word limited specified. I actually have a lot of meaningful stuff to say here (several jobs since college, and gaps were fruitful/ had impact), so am wondering whether 300-400 words is too much.

Thoughts?

Remember, brevity is much appreciated skills in business school applications. Be concise when you answers questions like these. If you are being too wordy without much content, it sends some wrong signals.
