Two-in-one... Too stupid?

<p>Hi...
I was working on my Bonner scholars application, and for the 7th item, they wanted me to write about a link that I had made between my academics and my community service. Now, the problem is that the response that I had submitted for the Richmond Question on the supplement was the EXACT fit for this answer. It answered the question COMPLETELY. I was thinking if I should put an edited version of the same one on here. I know, its pretty thick-headed to duplicate stuff like responses, but the deal is that its not like yet another essay, you know. You don't exactly stumble upon a lot of parallels between your classes and your volunteer projects, so I was sort of running low now. I didn't even know of Bonner Scholars back then. Apparently God likes his 'gotcha' moments...</p>

<p>so, what do you say... should I? I was thinking of writing to the contact person for Bonner Scholars to see if it would be a problem. I could probably come up with something but I hardly doubt it would be as amazing as the last one was... That was just divine...</p>

<p>^^ ok, that’s “highly” doubt up there… ={</p>

<p>I’d be highly tempted to submit your application essay, with a paragraph before it, stating that you feel that your original essay explains the impact community service has had on your life as a student, your perspective on the outside world, and how it is shaping you as an adult. Work smart…Why do something over?! Especially if you think the original essay is a masterpiece!</p>

<p>I think it would show your genuine interest, that you stand behind what you say, and a few guts! </p>

<p>Good luck. I’ll be interested in hearing what you decide and what others advise you to do.</p>
