Full video transcript Are you struggling with Columbias first essay? My name is Michelle Stockman and Ive been a consultant with Accepted for over 11 years. Consider this as an effective approach to the first essay. Heres what they ask: â€Å"We can get a sense of your professional experience and accomplishments from your resume. Tell us about your short-term goals and what would be your long-term dream job?† The 5 Parts of the CBS Essay This essay, I found, can be split into five parts. Start with an introduction This is where you want to grab the admissions committees attention. You can do that by asking a big question like: â€Å"What if this milestone could be reached in my industry?† Establish yourself as an expert who can execute You can do that by relating a brief example that shows when stakeholders gave you their time, their money, or other people, to make your idea become reality. Discuss your short-term goal Be specific by naming a specific position at, perhaps, a couple specific companies in a specific industry that youd like to go into after you complete your MBA. Discuss your long-term goal This is where you want to show the admissions committee how your ambitions can soar. But it really should have a bridge to your past. End with a conclusion Perhaps right now youre working on networking with people who already trying to figure out the solution to that big problem that you mentioned in your first paragraph. Then the fifth paragraph, or fifth section, should be your conclusion and should tie in Columbia. Be Columbia-Centric You can mention a couple specific aspects of Columbia that would help you reach this goal. And then this is a great launch which asks you how you plan to take advantage of Columbias location in New York City, the very center of business.
