<p>All applicants are required to answer the following essay question.
At Haas we value our Defining Principles (Confidence without Attitude, Question the Status Quo, Students Always, Beyond Yourself). Pick one principle. Why is this principle important and how do you identify with it?
I want to talk about the difficulties I had when I just graduated from high school and how I realized America is a good place for me to study in. What I want to focus is I took big challenges and although I failed I did not feel discouraged.</p>
<p>Is this topic meet any Defining Principles above?</p>
<p>Thank you for who like to help me~^-^</p>
<p>not really…lol…but if your creative you could probably work it.</p>
<p>Thanks, I think so~ I think this may be fit this one:</p>
<p>Confidence Without Attitude: We make decisions based on evidence and analysis, giving us the confidence to act without arrogance. We lead through trust and collaboration.</p>
<p>I can expand my experience in self-analyzing part~ Is this ok? ^-^</p>
<p>I think you might be reaching a bit… unless I’m missing something here.</p>
<p>Yeah but apparently you failed…why would you want to make yourself look like a cocky ******* that acts that way with nothing to back it up? While you may have been overly “confident with attitude” while you were doing whatever you were doing that lead to your failure, it still wasn’t enough to overcome your situation and succeed. You should pick a story that highlights a strong attribrute of you, one where you succeeded, and how you did it with confidence. It’s better if you started out as the underdog in whatever situation you want to highlight, and that you built up a confidence that ultimately helped you succeed, not the other way around…</p>
<p>something how you were backed into a corner but still kept your chin up and won the day through resilience, knowledge, and a cape cod</p>
