Essay Question

Hi, I’ve only just completed the rough draft, but I’m wondering, before I get too far into the essay if I should even stick with it?

I’m writing about my an educational experience as a boy (around 8 years old) which really was the beginning of my passion for science. Basically I live near a wetland reserve, and myself and the person who ran the park would go out, observe the wildlife, take notes, etc. This is the farthest back memory I have about myself really beginning to love science. Now I do biochemical research and other stuff, so I can show how this has benefitted me as a person. Also, I definitely am very conscious about the environment, especially after seeing how the estuaries and such were being ruined by the dumping of chemicals, logging, cows, etc. I personally feel that this would be a good narrative story with good before and afters and also show how it has affected me. Give me your thoughts.

<p>Anybody please?</p>

<p>Also for my MIT essay about something that I've made, I have a question. I'm already going to write about my experience doing scientific research and the university here, and I'm wondering if I should also talk about how I "made" proteins using Origami Ecoli cells, altered the DNA to give it a HIS chain so that it could be picked up by using chromatography, "making" a better purification scheme, etc?</p>

<p>It sounds really good. And do write to MIT about the proteins, especially if it was your original idea!</p>
