Rice Perspective Essay... Help PLEASE!!!

<p>I'm trying to apply Regular for Rice Unv.
The short answers are perfect but the perspective essay is bothering me soooo much :(
Would anyone mind reading my essay? I would love some feed back to improve this draft.</p>

<p>I’m in the same boat. It’s a really tough essay to write. There is a little bit of advice here:</p>

<p>Good luck. Rice prides itself on quirky students, so above all, you have to be interesting. I’ve heard about a kid writing about how he like to smell everything. Don’t go out of your way to be strange, but don’t sound like just another kid, even if your essay is about culture. Quirky is the key word… I think.</p>
