Everything looks quite good at first glance. My number 1 advice is master the essay. It is the only real thing that lets the admissions officer know that you are a human being and not some computer (science nerd) lol!.

I think you have excellent potential to write a compelling story about yourself, the world, and how you see yourself in the world around you. Have you begun to strategize your approach to the essays?

Yes! I’m trying to develop some unique stories to tell. I know they really value creativity in their applications, so.
