<p>i had the one about memories... so i used several off examples</p>
<p>not really about a memory, but the fact that hitler forgot about napoleon and was fixated on stalingrad... kinda off topic, but i showed how his suppression of previous beliefs led to his downfall... does this even work?</p>
<p>i also talked about the people getting caught up in the bull market of 2000... and forgetting about the previous crash in 88, once again leading to downfall...</p>
<p>then i said something else that had to do with me... kinda forget what i wrote...</p>
<p>do the first 2 even work? i know they're not "personal memories" but they are memories and beliefs that society held, or at least were aware of...</p>
<p>opinions?</p>
<p>Wow. So many people used Hitler examples.</p>
<p>fck.</p>
<p>i used hitler and napoleon and bush and iraq and vietnam and lbj and ****.</p>
<p>i thought my essay was good.</p>
<p>hhhm. who else used hitler examples? it can't be that many. oh well.</p>
<p>geez... i wanted to know if they were acceptable... not how many people did them... lol</p>
<p>plus how many people talked about the recession... <em>looks around room</em> that's right, just me</p>
<p>prolly not many. i dont think my other example wqas used much.</p>
<p>in any case, as long as you have strong quotations and support, it should be fine. if you fill both pages, you should get around a 12</p>
<p>lol, all of my friends used holocaust examples too, we just read Night. I was gonna use Napoleon/Hitler but I forgot the name Stalingrad...so I used Woodrow Wilson and the Treaty of Versailles/history repeats as WWII. It's a stretch, but at least it's kinda unique...I thought this was a cool topic.</p>
<p>but honestly... if i were to apply to say wharton... i bet they'd find it unique that a 17 year old would talk about economics in an essay on memories</p>
