SOP (statement of purpose) is a good idea that sets the thinking ball rolling. One puts in lots of efforts in writing and re-writing, gets it edited from some senior person and all this leads to a kind of seriousness in the students as he is able to realize his own limitations.

Subject: [MTC Global] Harvard and the essay
Wouldn't be great if we could ask our MBA/PGDM aspirants to write an essay, extempore, as a product of their ability to express themselves?
Even if that essay may not be the best in the world, it would - produced under pressure and most certainly, after some genuine effort at preparation - be another indicator, for the admission team, of the quality of their thinking and language. The experience of the essay may set the standard for the rigour of study for the next two years at B-school.
We follow USA and HBS on so many issues (management education, ideas such as strategy, case study etc) that adopting one more practice of theirs should be no problem.
Best wishes.
