<p>Anyone willing to read my "End of the World" essay, I've gotten very mixed responses, all of which essentially negate each other.</p>
<p>I will, but I don't think you should just put it here. Also, what question does that answer?</p>
<p>Tell us about an experience which, at the time, really felt like "the end of the world" -- but had it not happened, you would not be who you are today. Describe the process through which you discovered value in the negative.</p>
<p>Oh, I thought you were literally talking about "the end of the world".</p>
<p>hahaha, that would be a great topic, though.</p>
<p>I could just see it:</p>
<p>"My worst experience was the end of the world. It really seemed like it was the end of the world. I really didn't think the world would go on, because it's the end..."</p>
<p>"There was no more world, so where would I go to college?"</p>
<p>PS, did you get my essay?</p>
<p>Yep, I will read it tonight.</p>
<p>Thanks, TBOL3!</p>
<p>Alright, I just read it. And I must say that it's a good piece of writing. The level is much higher then mine is.</p>
<p>However, I don't think it answers the question that MIT wants. You make it seam like the "team" that learned the lesson, not you. And it leaves you as being a fairly flat, and semi-static character. My main suggestion is, to put more emotion into it, rather then relying on your outside knowledge.</p>
<p>However, I'm not really the best person to grade essays, because I'm still trying to get in. Perhaps I could pm you mine.</p>
<p>Thank you for the feedback! I did read yours, and just PMed you my response =)</p>
<p>If you PM me I will read it for you : )</p>
<p>I am sure i can be of some help here... (pm moi)</p>
