Length of Supplement

<p>I didn't write a short essay for why CMC,instead I listed the unique things I love about CMC,Is that OK?</p>

<p>There are so few words in the visit section; I just listed dates and type of visit, like info session, sat in on class, etc.
I did relate the supplemental essay to myself just in the sense of why I relate to this person, but mostly it was analyzing their influence.</p>

<p>i want to know what everyone wrote about! but we should save that for when we've all submitted.</p>

<p>4 pages? Sheisse man.. mine is like 400 words. But I mean I think it gets the point across without going super deep, and maybe after reading a lot of long ones it'll be refreshing ;) haha. Good luck to you all :) Did you guys go for Seaver?</p>

<p>Oh and about the visit essay, I gave the date (I did one of their open house weekends) and talked about the two sessions I visited, mentioned I really loved talking with the head of the major I want to go into. [and I had written him a thank you note after, to which he replied so that is good.. haha]</p>

<p>mine is a little over 400 words as well... I wrote all that I could think of! It took me from about 8-11 this morning to write and I ended up switching people in the middle of my essay because I realized the first person I picked was TOO influential... and I couldn't figure out how to organize all of it.</p>

<p>I went for every scholarship possible haha </p>

<p>I've never been able to visit, even though my mother moved to pasadena a few months ago :( so I had to leave that whole section blank</p>

<p>I wrote about Dr. Ron Paul the semi-crazy congressman think that'll keep me from getting in?</p>

<p>haha niceeee definitely not</p>

<p>i wrote about rachael ray LOL</p>

<p>oh my goodness. so i totally misread the supplement and wrote a 400 WORD essay on why i wanted to go to cmc... so... UH. i was pretty confused when it said -1000 something CHARACTERS left in the box... </p>

<p>but it's all gooooooooood :)
hahaha.
i talked about Martha Graham.</p>

<p>& SUBMITTED IT LAST NIGHT. ah</p>

<p>i hope they dont think my application is a joke because i also put that i wanted to go to lunch with ryan lochte. and im being completely honest</p>

<p>Ryan Lochte!! I used to email with him! and some other swimmers (Jason Lezak, Brendan Hansen) Not trying to name drop haha.. but my friend used to date Phelps so I had even better connections there.</p>

<p>Well with some of my things I was serious, like with the lunch one I put a pretty serious person (not saying yours isn't, but everyone will know this is), but for other questions I was more funny. I just put what came to me..and for the "The world would be better if we could all agree on ________" I said "Coke or Pepsi" :D</p>

<p>wow do i envy you. i just found out that phelps is a great poker player too and that he won some tourney in vegas hahahah</p>

<p>i do like your response for the world one! i actually really enjoying those fill in the blank statements</p>

<p>oh wow, that was one thing I actually did not know about him..and I know a lot haha :)</p>

<p>Thank you! yeah most of them I did too.. what did you put for the superhuman quality or whatever? I said perfect balance.</p>

<p>that is really original never wouldve thought of that!</p>

<p>i put something boring... i think like the ability to control peoples' thoughts and emotions</p>

<p>andddd i just went to CMC today when i had my pomona interview!</p>

<p>That's cool :)</p>

<p>Oh nice! I went out there for the visiting weekend in September, that was a great time. All my dad's family lives in socal so it was a good trip, plus I got a short surf sesh in the morning before I caught my flight back. Had you been to the campus before? Hope the interview went well! I didn't have time during that Open House day, but I had a local interview that went really well :)</p>

<p>Yeah I've been to the campus before since I live just two hours away. But it was fun going again haha</p>

<p>I saw a lot of cute guys wandering around Pomona and CMC so now I'm just a tad more sold on those schools :P</p>

<p>My essay was around 850 words long and that's probably the one I'll have written the most for once I'm done the whole college admissions process. And for coopgalvin, don't worry I wrote about someone MUCH crazier than Ron Paul.</p>

<p>Thomas Jefferson?</p>
