<p>What if I just use my National Merit essay? Is that ok... I mean I'm not afraid to put forth some effort if it's not. Is 500 words enough?<br>
I know there have been many posts asking about the meaning of "intellectual interest" The way I have it now... one interest with multiple activities that show me following that interest. does that sound right?
If you're anyone besides an Emory scholars applicant this year, please let me know if you would like to read it. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>The Emory Scholars essay is supposed to be 750 words. I don't see anything wrong with using your National Merit essay, but you'll have to lengthen it.</p>
<p>I know its 750 words. So I should probably get it up to 700 words right?</p>
<p>i'm a current scholar, you can pm me with your essay and i'll take a look. also give me your gpa/sat/act/ap stuff too while you do it.</p>
