<p>CommonApp Essays:
I think all 3 are very well and clearly written. Mentioned my planned internship with DOE at Fermilab which is associated with UChicago and how Fermilab is a perfect place for me to intern because it closely parallels my interests and if I go to UChicago I may be able to continue my involvement with Fermilab along with getting superb training from them.</p>
