[QUOTE="addy2004, post: 191677, member: 32274"] From my experience, the setback needs to be an actual 'setback' (so more of a 'failure'), and then you can explain what steps you took to overcome it and what you have learned etc. This shows more growth, development and awareness in yourself, rather than using an example of a setback that isn't really as serious/many people have encountered (eg rejections). What I'm trying to say is don't be afraid to use a more personal example to write a compelling answer - how you explain your growth is what matters. [/QUOTE]
