<p>I heard that some people send in additional supplements such as a particularly good piec of school work etc. If i were to apply to wharton, would a musical recording (which is one of my stregnths on my application) and an English IB extended essay help or does it have to be business related??
Thanks!!</p>
<p>any help would be appreciated! Thanks!</p>
<p>I didn’t apply to Wharton; I applied to CAS ED and was accepted. I had a music supplement and I believe it helped me. It all depends on what you do now and what you want to do in college. I play a lot of jazz now and I’m hoping to continue that in college (I wrote about that in my community essay), so naturally the arts supplement fit. I would caution you not to send more than one. It may appear excessive and a bit desperate.</p>
<p>I sent a violin/viola cd as a supplement to my application. I’ve done a lot of music related things throughout high school, participated in several school and youth orchestras, went to a rigorous music camp in the summer, played in a few chamber ensembles. If it’s important to you, why not?</p>
<p>I am actually in a similar position as you but I applied to CAS instead of Wharton. As tempted as I am to send my English EE, I don’t think it has any relevance to my course…</p>
<p>Don’t even send in an economics ee unless you decided to screw the ib format and actually write a decent paper. It’s marked based on fulfilling criterion, not academic quality so I would caution against it unless you know a professor who has read it and says it’s awesome.</p>
<p>These types of supplements in general, unless they are absolutely amazing (in which case they will help quite a bit) can actually hurt so be mindful of the risk.</p>
<p>ahh right so i think it would probably be best if i do not submit an E.E, but a music supplement to show my passion for the arts as well and maybe set me apart from the competition. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>and Poeme, how many songs did you send? Were they original pieces?</p>
