Perhaps CBS is returning to the mind-set that less is more by getting rid of the third full essay from last year and adding a 200-character, career goal mini essay instead.</p></blockquote> <p><a href="//www.mbamission.com/blog/2012/06/13/stanford-university-stanford-graduate-school-of-business-essay-analysis-2012-2013/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>Stanford Graduate School of Business Essay Analysis, 2012-2013</strong></span><br /> </a></p> <blockquote><p>The Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB) has tweaked its essay questions and word limits this year, moving from an 1,800 word count across four essays to a 1,600 word count across three. Some quick math will reveal that you have more words per essay now”maybe the admissions committee felt it was not getting the true depth of candidate experiences previously? The most important broad advice we can give you is to be sure that you keep the reader learning. Keep your audience in mind”your admissions reader will be going through hundreds of essays this application season. If he/she gets to your essay three and has to read about the same theme yet again, he/she will be bored or frustrated or both. So as you write, be sure that you are introducing new experiences and dimensions of your profile. This will greatly improve the likelihood that you will be able to hold your reader’s attention throughout.</p></blockquote> <p><span id="more-3298"></span></p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong><a href="//www.mbamission.com/blog/2012/06/22/university-of-pennsylvania-wharton-essay-analysis-2012-2013/" target="_blank">University of Pennsylvania (Wharton) Essay Analysis, 2012-2013</a></strong></span></p> <blockquote><p>Harvard Business School (HBS) made a splash this application season by introducing a reduced essay count, and then Wharton keeps its essay count exactly the same but reduces the total word count across all of its essays by 100 words (even though they add 100 words for essay 1). Is that some kind of reaction to HBS’s adjustment? We doubt it, given that this is really just a minor change in the grand scheme of things. This year, applicants to Wharton must write a standard career essay and then choose two other essay topics from among three options thereafter. Our analysis follows</p></blockquote> <p><a href="//www.mbamission.com/blog/2012/06/25/new-york-university-stern-essay-analysis-2012-2013/" target="_blank"><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>New York University (Stern) Essay Analysis, 2012-2013</strong></span><br /> </a></p> <blockquote><p>This year, New York University’s Leonard N. Stern School of Business (NYU Stern) has maintained its same total word count from last season and continues to challenge applicants with its notorious Essay 3, but its first two essay questions have changed somewhat in content and wording. Although the first essay prompt again focuses on the candidate’s professional aspirations, more of an emphasis is placed on the applicant’s decision to pursue an MBA at Stern specifically. And this season’s Essay 2 prompt focuses on the candidate’s long-term career view, whereas last season’s prompt focused on the applicant’s anticipated ties to and role in the Stern community.

Last year, Yale gave candidates 1,600 words with which to impart qualitative information”that number is now just 1,350. This is not a huge difference, but every word counts.

Although most of the other schools that have published their questions for this application season have changed their essay prompts in some way from last year, Ross apparently has not.
