<p>I wrote an essay over the summer about a humorous travel experience that I wanted to use for apps, but never got a chance to. I thought it would work for Harvard since it fits one of their essay tasks, but now I'm thinking that this essay doesn't tell Harvard something that they REALLY should know about me. It doesn't give any major information they should know that I couldn't put down on the commonapp. All it does is give them more insight into my writing style and personality. Is that enough? Or would it be in my best interest to write a new one?</p>
