<p>...not really, but he is in there and I'm wondering if I veered off topic a bit too much?</p>
<p>And I'm worried that a chunk of my essay could fit for practically any school when I talk about research. </p>
<p>Anyone care to read it? I know you probably don't like to be bugged, but I wouldn't mind a little feedback. </p>
<p>I'm wrapping it up now, should be done relatively soon.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Is it okay that my why NU essay is nearly 800 words long?</p>
<p>I know NU didn’t really give a word count, but I saw a lot of people said theirs was around 500.</p>
<p>You better hope your adcom is a libertarian! :D</p>
<p>Lol, chances are not, but I only mention him in regards to his goal to pass legislation to audit the Fed.</p>
<p>And that has what to do with me applying to Northwestern…haha, thats kind of what I’m wondering and I’m having second thoughts about my essay, but I put him in there because I want to do research and it involves the Fed. And no one seems to know a whole lot about the Fed(IMO it’s not very transparent).</p>
<p>Trying not to disclose too much of my essay, but that skirts around my essay topic and prompt.</p>
<p>I talked about the societal benefits of autocratic communism and the effective restriction of education to maintain civil order.</p>
<p>I was thinking mine might be a little edgy, but RON PAUL? </p>
<p>ps: I’m kidding. Having Ron Paul in your essay is fine.</p>
<p>^ Haha I thought I was hallucinating when I read your first sentence.</p>
<p>EPIC WIN!!!</p>
<p>BTW, admissions consolers remember essays with unique features and link them to their apps. It could help you or hurt you, but if it’s you it’s worth a shot.</p>
<p>Honestly, you’d be a shoe in at University of SLightManifesto if you wrote about Ron Paul. I love that man :)</p>
<p>Haha, thanks guys.</p>
<p>I don’t really mention him that much, just once or twice, but hey, it might help. </p>
<p>I hope when I was describing what I would like to research I didn’t ramble on, my essay is like 800 words lol, but there is no limit/restrictions, so I think it should be alright.</p>
<p>Oh and for my Penn essay, I’m being really obscure and making a claim that I can back up but it is pretty unique, and like you said, gt, maybe it will help me. And Lord knows I’m going to need a lot of help as far as Penn goes. And NU for that matter too. lol</p>
<p>thanks guys</p>
<p>Edit: Haha, SM, me too! Too bad UofC is known more for Austrian Economics than NU is, but whatever. Fun doesn’t die at NU… lol</p>
<p>…well maybe not as easily, I hear its still pretty hardcore.</p>
<p>haha im still laughing about gtlane. I read the first line twice, thought hmmm FANTASTIC, then read the p.s.</p>
