A few quick questions:

I know that the essays are extremely important factors when deciding who gets in. Is it true that the admissions officers like to see community service and leadership? If not, what do they like?

Do they see your grades for the fall semester during which you are applying? For example, if after spring 2012 I have a 3.3 but after fall 2012 I have a 3.5, which will they see and consider when reviewing my application?

How do they know people aren’t lying on their resumes? What prevents someone from saying they worked at Google or Morgan Stanley or something?

Thanks!!
