I am planning to apply to UCB for MFE. How important are the Essays? I am confused by two questions specially.

1. Creativity and resourcefulness are often viewed as the hallmark of successful financial practitioners. Please describe how you have demonstrated these characteristics in your personal or professional life.
- This looks more like a question for a MBA applicant rather than a technical applicant. What kind of things do they expect? In broad term can current students or alumnus tell what should be discussed here.

2. Discuss how you believe you have demonstrated strong presentation/communication skills.
- I am more confused. Again any help would be highly welcome.
