My Essays In Retrospect

<p>Yes, it's been weeks since the deadline, but I was just thinking about my essays and figured, heck, why not?</p>

<p>I have a large number of ECs, and have done well in al lfo them. In sports, I'm a tournament medalist, in student government, I'm President, our choir has taken first and second at national festivals, etc etc.</p>

<p>However, what I'm really crazy about is computers: Programming (self taught since middle school), CAD/3D Modeling, and game modding (project lead for an ambitious mod). Those are the things I wrote about in my short essays.</p>

<p>However, in the long essay, I wrote about my community service.</p>

<p>So when the admissions guys look at my app, do you think they'll see</p>

<p>1) A well-rounded kid whose greatest interest just happens to be in computers</p>

<p>2) A nerd who is very focused on computers</p>

<p>3) Complete undersirability for Stanford</p>
