<p>I really don’t know who it was. It probably was myself. lol
anyways, this is all I can say:
I learned about Brown through my own research. An admission officer who visited my school further fostered my interest in Brown. </p>
<p>Would this be enough? or does it have to be something like a 250 word paragraph? I heard that for the online application, the word limits for this part and the why Brown part are the same. (I haven’t summited the first part yet…yeh, a big procrastinator)</p>
<p>So, does that mean they are equally important?</p>
<p>Anyone, who knows the answer to my questions, please dont just pass by T_T
I really dont have that much time left.</p>
<p>Online, the limit is 500 characters. Mine is like five sentences, but that's because I actually had conversations with a tour guide online who gave me a really great impression of Brown. So, I wanted to include that. The question is simple enough. If you have nothing to elaborate on, then you've answered the question as best as you can. I don't think they will hold it against you for not using up the space. Also, you may not even want to include the research bit. You should elaborate on that in your why Brown essay.</p>
<p>The answer is no. You need to elaborate a little bit more. You must have talked to a lot of admission officers at your high school. So why is Brown a good fit?</p>
<p>i would just focus on answering the question. if it takes you two sentences then it takes you two sentences. and i think that the other essay questions are a bit more important.</p>
<p>hmm.. thanks everyone. but i'm getting even more confused now.
99cents, isn't that supposed to be a part of the why Brown question?</p>
<p>I developed my interest in(for?) Brown thorugh my own research. The admission officer who visited my school further fostered my interest in Brown.</p>
<p>This sounds better, right? </p>
<p>Also,
Since I am dead tired and cannot figure out if I have any grammar mistakes in those two sentences, can someone help me with that?</p>
<p>I developed my interest in(for?) Brown thorugh my own research. The admission officer who visited my school further fostered my interest in Brown.</p>
<p>To the OP: those two sentences are neither informative nor concise. At least address, briefly, what type of research you did, who the admissions officer was and what he/she did to foster your interest in Brown (enthusiasm, etc.). Also, anytime you find yourself repeating a phrase - in your case, "my interest in Brown" - you know you can slice something out.</p>
<p>I actually had a conversation with my friend who was going to apply to Brown as well (but she got in somewhere else, so she's not applying anymore), and we were like "Why Brown? Because IT'S BROWN!" I mean, the question kinda answers itself. Of course, I didn't put that down. Cause, that 'd be stupid. Right?</p>
