The third prompt is still so frustrating!! I actually CANNOT think of a time I’ve even upset anyone…only veryyy trivial things that would take like a 100 words to write about…arghgrfsd
SAME!!! I feel like anything I write will be obviously exaggerated but I don’t have conflict traumatic enough for 500 words let alone 1000
Leave it at 500 if you think it’s enough. 1000 or 1500 words are not required.
Is the deadline tonight at 12:00 AM EST January 26th(midnight tonight) or tomorrow 11:59 PM EST January 26 (tomorrow night before midnight)?
@krauser126 Tomorrow midnight. Is there no way to incorporate stylistic functions like italics on the online app?
@GreenLight1 No I haven’t found any way to do that :L Btw, we don’t need recommendation letters for the app right?
No I believe you get your rec letters in after you are selected for interviews.
@krauser126 No, we don’t need any rec letters right now. I think we have to send in rec letters and a transcript if we make it to the interview stage, but we don’t need to turn any of that in tomorrow.
Uhh am I allowed to put curse words?
You should probably shy away from profanity in general… There’s almost always a better (and frankly, a more intelligent) way of saying what you need to say.
It’s a quote from another person in the maturity essay… something that someone else said to me.
@bsdsj22 In that case, as long as you make clear that it was in fact a quote, it’s probably alright to use.
RIP still need to write two essays ;-; I hate writer’s block. A lot.
@tonystarkofwinterfell I have 2 essays left and the seminar and list of activities one… RIP me.
Just curious, how did you manage to write a substantive amount in poetry form (for the idea one)? Is it, like, one long poem? 
Kudos to you!
@tonystarkofwinterfell @drakonus you guys can do it! I’m a firm believer in 11th hour inspiration 
I wrote 300 words for the maturity prompt. It’s short, but it gets the point across.
@drakonus it’s one poem that’s almost 40 lines? It’s not too long because when I ramble, I become more and more incoherent. I might expand on it, though. I did include a short explanation underneath it just to make it clear that yes, this is my “essay”, and yes, this is what it deals with.
Just submitted the thing!!
Good luck to all of you still writing!
@tsenker Just came here to say the same. I just submitted my app. Good luck to everyone. You all seem really smart and talented.
I will now go hide in my hole for 1 month & 1/2
