<p>for the illustrate an ad etc...with the paper</p>
<p>Do you have to do ALL of the listed? or just choose one?
on the same paper??</p>
<p>It's the first time they're doing this new creativity supplement, so alums/current students can't really help you out. Maybe someone who already got in ED I this year?</p>
<p>Just choose one. I did an ad for "object of my choice". It's an optional and creative supplement that they are going to be excited to see no matter what you do.</p>

<p>Molly's probably right on that. The adcom will probably just look very favorably on whomever even attempts to do the ad, if only because it's such an unconventional portion of a college application.</p>
<p>would it be an overdose of creativity if I did the ad for the supplement?</p>
<p>my personal essay is quite creative- like a story, and the other required 200word ones kind of shows me as not so straightforward. </p>
<p>So I was thinking would it be better to write a straight to the point essay for the supplement to show my analytical skills?</p>
<p>Janette, I would say it's always good to be creative. Just try to cover different territory. You only have a few hundred words to convey yourself...so choose topics that show different side of you for each essay.</p>
