			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the last month to submit the scholarsihp application for Beat the<br />
GMAT scholarship. I have talked about it earlier<a href="http://jc-4mba.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline;"> on the other blog </span></a><br />
But I think that<br />
was before it renamed to a new title. I want to reiterate if I havent mentioned it somewhere before that the scholarship competition is open for international applicants as well. Anyone can apply: US or non-US applicant.<br />
Check out the details:</p>
<blockquote><p>Beat The GMAT is an MBA discussion community that exists to help people<br />
achieve success on the GMAT and business school admissions by connecting them to<br />

The GMAT/Veritas Prep MBA Fast Track Scholarship competition, co-sponsored by<br />
Veritas Prep. Thanks to the generous donations made by Veritas Prep, we will be<br />
distributing <strong>five scholarship packages valued over $20,000!<br />
</strong>The deadline to submit your scholarship application is <strong>September 1, 2008</strong>.</p></blockquote>
<p>&amp; let me provide you the requirement. You need to submit two essays &amp; one optional essay.</p>
<blockquote><p>Essays Responses:<br />
500 word limit &#8211; REQUIRED: Why do<br />
you deserve this scholarship?<br />
300 word limit &#8211; REQUIRED: Why do you want to go to business school?<br />
300 word<br />
limit &#8211; OPTIONAL: Are there any special circumstances you<br />
want us to consider? Examples: financial need (proof of financial need<br />
