B School evaluate an applicant on quantitative inputs such as GMAT/GRE scores & GPA as well as on qualitative inputs such as Resume, Essays and Recommendations.

Many students tend to go overboard when they write their essays.

Here is a warning to such a group.

While you may cross the first hurdle and get an interview call, the same exaggerated write-up can get you in a soup in an interview.
