<p>I just received an email from HMC! they want that ^ from me. omg, wat does this mean? im on the brink of accept/reject? Oh heck, my writing is super ugly... -.-!!!
omg im so shocked and nervous. i dont know what to submit! i have ugly writing, ugly drawing. so arts is a no-no.</p>

<p>edit: i think i just fig out what constituted the email. i got a C+ in arts, and a low A in theater. and i got Bs and low As in my history classes.....
so what should i send? omg...GRADED WRITTEN PAPER....?? Is this essay? I don't have any essays graded...i have some writing9aka journals and other assignments) though....</p>

<p>Um, they don't mean the paper has to be *hand*written... it just has to be a paper you've written (typed is ok) and handed in for a grade. Surely you've had some writing assignments in your classes? Writing (not handwriting, but verbal skills) is important to Mudd.</p>

<p>They made this kind of request to another applicant who frequents this forum; they reportedly thought one of his essays seemed awkward, so they wanted to see more of his writing before they made an admission decision.</p>

<p>Don't panic; just send your best graded paper (preferably one that got an A :D). If you're in doubt as to which one, ask one of your teachers if any of your recent papers was particularly memorable.</p>
