<p>I do have a few little formatting things in my essays... is it worth my time to mail them or should I just suck it up and send them by plain text online?</p>
<p>If the formatting is vital to the essay ... or if you think you are likely to fret about it for the next month and a half, mail them.</p>
<p>i had lots of formatting and a little image (pointillism!) for my extended essay so I mailed it in. sending the others regular...copy/paste into the text field.</p>
<p>Heh, I was curious to see if anybody else felt awkward about putting <em>underscores</em> or <em>asterisks</em> as emphasis in their essay...</p>
<p>I think I'm going to go with the underscores against my more paranoid judgment, because I can't see how they could look at my application and go "REJECTED!" solely because I wanted to use a little emphasis on some words without going through the trouble of paying postage. Italics are <em>priceless</em>.</p>
<p>The format won't let you indent!</p>
<p>Below is a quote from Libby Pearson: <a href="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17894916&postID=5233208445269443309%5B/url%5D">https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17894916&postID=5233208445269443309</a> </p>

<li><p>No, you can't indent. Indentation is a tool of the Man.</p></li>
<li><p>No, you can't order your activities, but putting things in order is also a tool of the Man.</p></li>
<li><p>The "have you consulted" question is about anyone you've talked with, in an official or unofficial capacity.</p></li>

<p>If anybody cares, I totally figured out that my essays didn't even need <em>emphasis</em> after all.</p>
<p>That made me happy.</p>
