Optional essay- To explain Intentional exposure?

[vincenm]

Hi

I am a Indian Syrian Christian , who was brought up in the Middle East for 17 years of my life.

I have met and interacted with people from many countries and cultures in those years. I have used this exposure to a great extent in extracurricular activities such as Model UN events, Work as School student president and other competitions . Living in a racially and culturally diverse country, I have watched and learned everything I could about Global pop culture, current affairs and cultural topics .

Can I use this experience to differentiate my profile from the other Indian applicants .

You certainly can, like many other things in your application it is all about how you frame your personal and professional experiences. Breakthrough candidates create a revealing portrait of their life experiences both in and out of the workplace to take their candidacy off the page for ad comm. Take advantage of your unique experiences and set yourself a part from your homogenous applicant pool.

Hope this helps!
