<p>Hi, I've been working on my essays (The WhyUC, Universal App, Extended, and Optional) and have had my peers, sisters who graduated, and a teacher read them. After writing them all (except the Extended - I've been really reluctant to start on a topic I'm really passionate about for the Group of Three Essay - I'll explain why) I saw on the forums the thread where everyone posts their essays, and was just blown away by how vivid and amazingly written all of them were!! Writing has always been my weakness in school, and I've always been extremely nervous about writing my college apps eventually x.x I am class of 2015 and I would love if someone who currently attends/will attend/has graduated from UC could read my essays and let me know what they think of them :) Please message me or reply!! Thank you so much!</p>
