<p>I have made a draft for Cornell's supplemental essay. Now I am going to polish it. However, I encounter a problem, that is, it seems that I have so much to say, such as my previous academic experience from high school to college, a list of Cornell's distintives. I know I have keep this essay short and keep up some important factors.</p>

<p>So is there anyone who can give me an idea what I should elaobrate in Cornell's supplemental essay and what I should not?</p>

<p>Don't tell them what they already know about their own school. Only talk about "distinctive" things about Cornell that match up with your particular major/interests.</p>

<p>Don't cover your own hs/college academics etc. in the essay in ways that already come through in your transcript etc.</p>
