[QUOTE="studenttolawyer, post: 215775, member: 30739"] Hey, here's my perspective on this. You don't necessarily have to include 3 strengths. You can write about as many strengths as you like, depending on: (a) your word count; (b) how much detail you can go into given your word count. So, for example, if you had 300 words, you may wish to divide your answer into 3 strengths, roughly 100 words each. Ultimately, you need to go into a reasonable degree of depth to provide a strong response. Practice writing down the answer and see what works for you! I wouldn't necessarily use the STAR technique, I think it'd be more relevant if the question was asking something like "describe a time when you..." There are many ways to approach a question like this, I'd personally focus on discussing the strength, evidencing it by providing an example, and linking it to the career or, better, the firm. I guess you could call this a PEEL structure? Hope this is helpful! [/QUOTE]
