Does being a blood donor count as an EC?

<p>Yea, I'm pretty sure that this is a joke.</p>

<p>


</p>

<p>Do you actually know this for a fact? And have you actually met said people? Because that would be a pretty damn interesting essay.</p>

<p>I agree with Femmefatale
I didn't even catch that. If you can convey that in an essay, then thats your golden ticket .</p>

<p>No, because the whole blood process is confidential. Would you like it if the whole world knew you had a blood transfusion, and whose blood it was?</p>

<p>Why didn't you do anything else during high school?</p>

<p>My only advice is that maybe you should apply to a numbers-heavy school.</p>

<p>Well think about it. He has one leg so he probably won't be required to accomplish as much in the extra-curricular realm coupled with low offerings of EC's outside of sports. And last time I checked, it's called community service (such as volunteering) which is an EC. Thus, donating blood is an EC. I would call your EC "Community Service" and then talk about donating blood in your essays.</p>

<p>Is UMich considered a "numbers-heavy" school? I have 36 ACT, and ranked 1 in my class of 300 at a highly competitive private school. Do you think I have a chance there?</p>

<p>are you the same person who had a leg trapped under a boulder?</p>

<p>You will get into Mich.</p>

<p>yeah most likely lol. with a 36 ur hard to pass on.</p>

<p>"I have saved probably 10 lives so far, and I think that is something to be very proud of."</p>

<p>You're such an idiot.</p>

<p>This is a joke right? Anyways I commend you for saving 10 lives...Definitely write an essay on that. I mean how mean people can even say that they saved even one life.</p>

<p>How about donating sperm?</p>

<p>I'm really ROFL!!!!</p>

<p>OMG, WOW DUDE!</p>

<p>Lets see.
Perfect test scores? Check
First in class? Check
"Hook" that is exceptionally easy to write an essay about (overcoming the leg thing)? Check
Worried about getting into a selective but not impossibly so University? Check.</p>

<p>Yeah, I'm still on CC.</p>

<p>You're going to find yourself in a bit of trouble when you apply to colleges. What are you going to put under hours per week and weeks per year?</p>

<p>30 minutes once every 2 months</p>

<p>haha...so basically 4 minutes a week.</p>

<p>that's some awesome dedication</p>

<p>Well, I bought a hybrid car too. I must have saved another 1,000 lives by doing that.</p>

<p>I use Energy Star Appliances, does that count?</p>
