The fully updated fourth edition of the go-to guide for crafting
winning essays for any type of graduate program or scholarship,
including PhD, master's, MBA, MD, JD, postdocs, DDS, DVM, Rhodes,
Marshall, Fulbright--you name it.
Based on thousands of interviews with successful grad students and
graduate admissions officers, Graduate Admissions Essays deconstructs
and demystifies the ever-challenging and seemingly more impersonal
application process for getting into graduate and scholarship programs.
The book presents 50 sample essays in a comprehensive range of subjects,
detailed strategies that have proven successful for some of the most
notoriously competitive graduate programs in the country, as well as
sample letters of recommendation, essays for residencies and
fellowships, and postgrad applications.
