3.0 out of 5 stars no real directions, lots of samples, 7 Oct 1998
By A Customer
I was frustrated that there was only one chapter of very general instructions. It was interesting to read successful applicants personal statements, but a lot of them reflected extreme situations that most people have not experienced in their lives. The last chapter has poorly written letters from admissions reps and Deans of Admission that I did not find useful in the slightest. I would have to say that the samples are a good way to get ideas and are the only redeeming quality of the book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for MBA essays not for general graduate essays, 27 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This book seems to be most useful for MBA program essays. It lacks information about general graduate school essays, in particular the sciences and humanities. I was a bit disappointed that it focused so intently on business, law, and medical school essays while touting to be a book for graduate school as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent, broad-based resource for graduate applicants, 18 Nov 1998
By A Customer
An excellent, broad-based resource no graduate applicant should miss. While clearly useful for individuals seeking admission to law, business and medical schools (which attract the largest numbers), the book lives up to its title by also providing a wealth of valuable information for those of us applying to other types of graduate programs. Included among the excellent essays, for instance, are examples from candidates for public administration, English and American literature, science, dentistry and geology. The author's advice, and that of a multitude of admissions officials, obviously applies to all applicants and offers exceptional direction.
