<p>It is not officially published material, but I wrote a paper (about 17 pages) for an internship I did and want to send it in... don't know if I should.</p>
<p>Also, would it be a bad idea to send in a music supplement. I'd say I'm advanced, but not "unusually talented".
THANKS!!</p>
<p>If it’s good and really reflects your writing, then go for it. I’m sending in one of my chapters for my senior thesis (60-page paper some of us seniors are writing - it’s an elective honors course), so I’m sure you could send in that. I would explain it in the additional information on the Common App just in case.</p>
<p>should I just say “will send in research paper supplement” in the additional info section b/c it won’t let me upload…it’s too big of a file!</p>
<p>Duke Supplement specifically has room for a a research paper supplement but they ask that you summarize. I am sending my abstract, with a short explanation about what my research means to me, etc.</p>
<p>Yeah I wrote like a 2 paragraph thing on the question on the supplement that talks about if you did research. so you are sending in your abstract thru the mail?</p>
<p>i wouldn’t send the music unless you are really f’in good (like, good enough to potentially play in the school orchestra)</p>
<p>haha no i wish i was that good; I decided not to send that in…but I’m going to send in my entire research paper thru the mail with a little cover letter type thing. But on the additional info section, I will indicate that I am sending it.</p>
<p>of course there is no gurantee that they will actually read it right?</p>
