autobiography question

<p>since it says, "you have just completed your 300-page autobiography," couldn't page 217 be during the present? i mean, this topic is really really flexible to interpretation, right?</p>

<p>i really want to write my essay about how i'm an entomology junkie. but it seems like they're really looking for essays about how the applicants see themselves in the future... </p>

<p>has anyone not written an essay about themselves in the future?
i'm stumped.</p>

<p>it's up to you. this essay is about being creative and showing a side of you they wouldn't see otherwise.</p>

<p>wear your heart on your sleeve and cross your fingers and hope it works.</p>

<p>Well I have a college essay book, and in my book there was a girl who wrote hers about being in 9th grade, and she got accepted</p>

<p>also, the autobiography has to be in first person, right? i made it 3rd person omniscient... i thought it gave somewhat of a charm to my essay.</p>

<p>and does it matter whether it's 1.5 spacing or double spacing?</p>

<p>can it be single spaced?</p>

<p>BUMP BUMP BUMP</p>

<p>1) spacing: does it matter?
2) does it have to be in 1st person? (how about 3rd person omniscient?)</p>

<p>i'm done with it, but even though it's really flexible i just need to make sure i'm doing it right, lol.</p>

<p>Bump Bump Bump Bump Bump</p>

Can you read minds?
If so, you deserve to get into Penn just for that. If not, why would page 217 of YOUR autobiography be in third person omniscient?</p>

<p>can anybody answer "spacing: does it matter" question please?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Well, its limited to one page, so it definitely has to be single spaced in order fit everything in.</p>

<p>Double spaced one page would probably be about 300-400 words, which I don't think is enough.</p>
