<p>What i'm looking for specifically are essays that incorporate EC's without actually making the EC the topic of the essay.</p>
<p>There are many college essay books available at your local bookstore or through amazon – and I’m sure one of them has an example of what you are looking for. I would hope that another student would NOT post their essay here for everyone to read, as it just invites plagiarism.</p>
<p>This is not your first post on something like this. You have to stop trying to make your essay into a brag sheet. You need to think about your own personal qualities or events in your life that are revealing of your personality. Ad-coms don’t want to know that you are great at tennis or robotics in your essay. They do want to know about your personality traits – the things they can’t get from the activity list. They would rather have a well-told anectdote (or a narrative of a story over time is okay) than something where you are trying to show off your ECs. If the EC comes up in passing, that is fine. But it should not be the focus. And ad-coms see so many essays – they can spot the phony “just look at my list of accomplishments and great things I say about myself” essay a mile away.</p>
<p>That is actually nowhere close to what I plan on doing. So please don’t talk like you do :)</p>
<p>@gibby yeah, i have a couple of those XX college essays that worked, i’m just asking on this forum for some more essays to supplement and i was hoping that they’d PM it to me, i just forgot to add it at the end.</p>
