That isnt essay.... that is a list of questions they ask like ur hobbies, ur goals, plans, and personal details so that they can match what u write and what u would speak in the PI. Hence, the details written might never be lied in the PI.

hey
Even I have seen the questionnaire.. and believe me, you can't ask people for the answers...
keep this in mind, whatever you are writing in the entire questionnaire should be consistent!! It all should add up to the same person sitting infront of the interviewers...
No need to ask anyone abt these type of questions.. seek professional help and use that help to organize your own thoughts!!!

This is something Which I know.There is no need to get hyper & start suggesting that you shud do this or that.It was just an effort to have a free & fair disc

Dude... HYPER???
ummm.. let me clarify...
by asking these sort of questions out in public, the result which you get need not hold true for every person reading this and hence participating in the discussion.. agreed???

thus, my suggestion of not going through personal questions in this forum. Rather it would be better to have a generalized discussion..
Whoever said anything about being hyper.. Those were my views (and still are) and you are welcome to oppose them. Please stop presuming things about my state of mind! Thank you...

the best thing which can be done without any sort of trouble is asking a fellow worker of yours to receive the letters on your behalf.
Other than that, I think you can also change your address of contact by calling up the respective institute! am not so sure but calling them certainly won't harm you right?
