Here are common reasons for rejections divulged by Admission Committee experts. Watch the video with attention, note down the reasons and try to prevent your rejection by following the advice given by the Admission committee members.

I liked this video very much. What caught my attention was the point put by a speaker at 1min 26sec in the video.

If someone does something either in the interview process or in their essays that suggests that they are not a team player, we reject their application.

This is such an important point to ponder. Never write in your statement of purpose suggesting that you were the only person who worked in your team project. Give due credit to your team or whoever helped with your accomplishment. Stealing credit and portraying a self centered picture hurts your chances of selection.
