Questions:

Why do you choose ESSEC?
How did you meet you mentor at the first place?

What do other classmates comment on you?
Your question?


My thoughts:

Zoom 信号特别不好，我自己用 4G 听问题都是平均每 10 秒卡一下，只能大概猜一下问题，重复一遍，然后问问面试官我猜的对不对。
面试官的问法会比较刁钻，80% 的问题是我没有准备到的……
虽然我的回答挺没有深度的，但是整场面试氛围比较好，两位面试官有说有笑，有时还会对问题解释一大长串。
自我介绍、职业规划、教育经历、工作经历（基本上 CV 的内容）都没有问到，大部分与 eassy 有关。

What matters most to you, and why? Tell us the values and experiences that have shaped the person you are. (400 words)
这个问题会比较自由一些，是想问个人价值观，可以写长期坚持做的一件事情如何改变了性格，也可以发生在身边的故事如何改变了对世界的认知，或者家庭条件、校园故事。
Provide to the Admission Committee any relevant additional information. (400 words)
这个写什么都可以，但是尽可能是你提供的资料、推荐信、CV、ESSAY、ML 里都没有提到的。因为这里有 400 字，可以写比较系统性的东西，拆分成 3-4 个小点来写。我主要是写了推荐信中导师提到的我和导师制定的一个自我提升计划，因为推荐信篇幅有限没有展开，我就在这里详细介绍了想成为xx必备的三个方面，以及我在大学期间是如
