I decided to apply to Harvard last-minute, and I wrote an essay for their supplement. I decided to take a risk with my essay – it’s a transparent description of me; I didn’t embellish myself or hide my flaws. It discusses my introversion and how I can be perceived as shy sometimes. Would anyone be willing to read my essay? I would like to know the possible effect it could have on my application – if it makes me stand out, or if it was a bad idea.
I’ll pm you if you’re interested. Thanks!
