Hi everyone.

Would you please help me to analyze the below essay topic. I've searched on the internet but cannot find anything.

"What do you consider to be a compelling current event? How has this event impacted you and have you responded?"

Million thanks for your help!!

Is there anything related to your industry that compels you? This doesn't need to be the most publicized event, just something contemporary.

That is William & Mary, Mason school of business.
Can you suggest any kind of event related to personal side?
Because I think that events in the industry would impact my company, rather than me. If I talked about it, I would just say it makes me realize what I'm short of and I take an MBA to improve my skills...
