I get what you’re saying. It’s just that I heard this story of a kid who got into stanford talking about how he was president of hte lunch club, or that famous essay on the internet (really old though) which mocked other people’s EC’s and got him into NYU so i was wondering if writing risky essays are usually successful or they dont’ usually pay off.</p>
<p>Regardless, I’ve headed your advice. I’m writing 2 drafts for now and will pick from them later, one does really not speak much about me, the other does but i’m already starting to see my negative characteristics shining through it so i’m not sure if I’ll choose it even though I probably cared a lot more about the topic in that essay. The topic of both essays will be my determination/drive, one of the few positive characteristics I pride myself on. Thanks for your help guys. </p>
