<p>Is it good to write an essay about how much you learn from and how much you've changed from reseraching and writing an essay for a rather competitive national essay contest, even though you didn't win the contest?
writing the essay was a really good experience because it changed my perspective of humanities/politics and got me interested in history (I even miss my ap us class, it was so unexpectedly fun and interesting), even though I'm not going to be a history or political sci major. The history/political sci part of me is new and dosen't really fit with my sciency side.</p>
<p>Sounds promising to me.</p>
<p>Go for it! Good luck!</p>
<p>can anyone tell me why?</p>
