the UC prompt#1 essay is about academics and seizing opportunities and what-not. the USC essay is about writing about any particular passion i have.
Is it okay to re-use my UC essay, into my USC essay - and saying my passion is academics?
Wouldnt it be obvious to the USC readers that i probably used my UC essay? Or is this type of thing common…how will it affect my chances?
Thanks
<p>I thought this was common knowledge? Ofcourse you can, everyone recycles their essays..</p>
<p>oh sorry, well i figured they did, but i was just wondering if it looks bad =(</p>
<p>how would they know you used it twice?</p>
<p>Just be sure to check for any references to UC!</p>
<p>haha, barejoe, i wrote ONE essay and recycled it nine different times. it is definitely a doable thing. just change a few sentences or even just words here and there.</p>
