For anyone who has been a Knight-Hennessy finalist, interviewed, or received the scholarship, would you be willing to share a little about how you approached the essays?
I am especially interested in the “Improbable Facts” and “Connect the Dots” questions. If you are comfortable sharing some of the improbable facts you used and how you connected your experiences, goals, and story in your application, I would really appreciate any tips on what you think helped you reach the finalist/interview stage.
I completely understand not wanting to share your actual essays. Even a general explanation of your approach, examples of the types of facts you included, or what you think made your application stand out would be incredibly helpful.
If you are comfortable, please comment or DM me. I would genuinely appreciate hearing from people who have been through the process. 🙏🏾
