My advice to you is to pay attention to the question(s) each school is askingāthere are subtle differences of focus in the way different programs ask questions so donāt just assume what you wrote for one school works as is for a different application. Iād like to know more about what metrics were noted in your award for best fire support team in your brigade and see you highlight the impact you have had in your leadership roles as you approach your applications.
