Optional Essays

Post by mcbaker31 » Wed Oct 13, 2010 10:54 pm

I am applying to GW and noticed that they have an optional, 300 word essay essentially on why you want to go to GW or become a lawyer. Although this is optional, is it something that they expect, or is this generally something that only somebody with lower numbers should be doing.

It's not like they're going to accept applicants below their target numbers no matter what they wrote. So NO.
