Using "I" in an Admissions Essay
#3
ryoder Wrote:Do the one on plagiarism if you are concerned about injecting your own opinion too much.
I have written a couple of papers on plagiarism already and find it a very interesting topic.
I can also share some references and links with you.

There are some scholarly journal articles covering the propensity of business students and MBA students to cheat and reasons as to why this is happening.
You could get some material from the school's own academic integrity policy and quote that.

Ryoder, I knew you would answer. Smile

I actually have to do both of the essays, each has to be 750+ words. I could pretty easily do the plagiarism essay in third person, but the other one would be very awkward if I did.. that's why I'm thinking that it might be ok to go with the first person, more personal essay. However, 1st person feels a little too informal for a graduate level essay, so that's why I'm confused.
