hi there
for this essay i wanted to capture my interest in chemistry and how it pushed me to work harder, to try and succeed. Im also trying to add the fact that i have reached the prelimary rounds of chemistry olympiad camp of 60 people but couldnt make it to the actual camp due to only 4 people from each school are able to go and i was the 5th
however im applying to mechanical engineering, do you think my strong interest in chemistry might disrupt my chances? I was originally applying to chemical engineering and i thats what i told all my teachers, but i found out chemical engineering was just process engineering.
so anyone keen to read?
cheers
What is the essay prompt?
The additional comments essay isn’t meant for that kind of thing…it’s meant to explain that you received an F in Calc because your dad died that year, or something to that effect. It shouldn’t even be an essay.
i felt i needed to write about chemistry and the influence it had on me, such as the sudden shift in % of my scores in all my class from previous years. which i guess in some sense could explain my large difference in % from 2 years.but thats not the major im trying to apply for. i needed to talk about my passion to explore in the first essay and my interest in music influenced me in the second. so i felt i could only add the influence chemistry had on me in the additional comments and how it persued me to compete in chem olympiad that i didnt have enough space in the test section comments
