Title: Super long essays that obviously didn't meet word requirements are not good examples!
Review: The book provides a decent set of guidelines for writing essays. However, the example essays are all extremely long. For example the second (Chinese applicant to Wharton ) essay is at least 1,500 words when the word limit is only 1,000. I'm not sure if you can actually use any of these examples because of this. Also the outlines, introduction, conclusion etc the author suggests will take up valuable space. Overall the book is useful second or third resource but definitely not a definitive source for MBA essay writing. I found the "How to Get into.." book to be much more useful for my purpose.What was most disappointing was that even for the longest essays the author comments never addressed the length of the essay!
