<p>Okay, I just found out that I was admitted to Michigan. Obviously I am ecstatic as it was one of my three top schools. Now comes the hard part. I am really interested in the Honors Program and got an e-mail about writing the Honors essay. Well, today is obviously the last day in February, and guess what the Honors essay is due March 1 if I want to find out if I made it into Honors on April 1. So, is it worth it to crank out the essay tonight to find out by April 1 or should I take my time and wait?</p>
<p>Well, I suggest taking the high you're infused with due to your acceptance and using it to inspire you to write an essay you like, one you nod your head up and down about upon review. Obv, not much time for deliberation or reflection, so make it shine. Send it, but don't have high expectations. It's worth a couple hours of your life.</p>
