Feynman essay

<p>Is it lame to say I express my interest in science by reading?
I dont really sit around making robots or anything so...</p>

<p>If you believe it’s lame, then pick something else.</p>

<p>If you think it’s ‘interesting’, ‘exciting’ or engages your ‘curiousity’ (I think those are the words form the prompt?), then write about it - why - how.</p>

<p>There’s no way I could judge what reading means to you.</p>

<p>It isn’t lame if it’s true. Just don’t write it lame and you’ll be fine. “I love to read about science and math topics - my favorite books are x and y, and I also love blog z. I’ve read x three times because each time I read it I understand more about the fascinating topic of q, which I hope to major in.” etc. Now if your reading really IS lame - you’ve enjoyed your biology class including the chapter reading, but you don’t do much else - then maybe Caltech isn’t right for you anyway. Good luck!</p>

<p>Good advice, geekmom.</p>

<p>That was generally what my essay was - and I got in. Write it well, you should be fine.</p>
