<p>Do we lose that little uppeharnd tomrorow?</p>
<p>Why would we?
I hope not...</p>
<p>I've just been hearing that everywhere....</p>
<p>I haven't heard anything like this.</p>
<p>And, on a side note:
**** the ut B essay. **** it to hell. this is the only thing keeping me from finishing my application. ****.</p>
<p>I agree, calizoso... that essay prompt is uber lame
I almost want to just put for my entire essay "alaskan native" and submit it.</p>
<p>haha i agree with calizoso and breadandbutter07. i pretty much want to shoot myself in the face right now because it's that annoying.</p>
<p>I've written essay A, but mine's not nearly as long as the amount of space they give us ... is that ok?</p>
<p>Mine's just barely over two pages, double-spaced. My B essay will probably be 3/4 of a page. </p>
<p>I like the alaskan native though. Maybe I should just put "disabled gay lesbian cherokee native american with a lazy eye"</p>
<p>That second essay, I've been beating my head against. So many of my friends just made up stuff and lied all over it. It's not that it's a difficult prompt, it's just so lame.</p>
<p>It's lamer than TAKS prompts. And I'm procrastinating by *****ing about it on cc.</p>
<p>I think I'll just write about someone I have learned a lot from, and make it sound like we haven't met yet... so what if it's sort of lying...</p>
<p>Just fyi, what the admissions people are wanting to hear from the "B" essay is a reflection of you, not some fictitious person. There has been some discussion about changing B because they know that they are getting lame essays, basically B.s. because of the topic. Try to think outside the box- don't just talk about some "disabled gay lesbian cherokke ---" Talk about how being around that person might change YOU and what you might take from a relationship with said person.</p>
<p>Does that make sense?</p>
<p>Haha that essay is HORRIBLE! i remember reading it a few years back when my brother was applying and thinking...how horrible! it's still there. its also the only thing that i have yet to complete to finish my application. </p>
<p>bah!</p>
<p>I hated it at first too, but now I love it. =)
First I was like whaaaaat why would they want you to describe someone you haven't met yet, that's basically just lying and making up a story lol</p>
<p>But now it's all good...</p>
<p>It's a horrible topic. End of story. I will write something this weekend and just submit it. I just have no idea what to say...</p>
