<p>In all my applications I sent out this year, I really showed my personality and what kind of person I am. My essays reflected my cheerful and playful side while at the same time they also displayed seriousness and maturity. I think my applications really convey who I am as a person and my principles. So now it's like 2 months into the application process and I'm wondering if it was a bad idea what I did. Do admissions officer appreciate this?</p>
<p>They do appreciate it (for good and bad). It will immediately tell them if you will fit in.</p>
<p>yes, this is the point of the essay a.k.a. personal statement.</p>
<p>Ha, I guess that would depend on whether or not you have a favorable personality.</p>
<p>But to answer your question, yes. It is much easier to reject scores than people.</p>
<p>So it can be both advantageous and disadvantageous? Should I have just stuck to the bland essay to be safer?</p>
