UC essays

<p>Do you guys think it is good to talk about devotion in 2 activities for the 600 word UC prompt assuming i can make the 2 activities link together?</p>

<p>Depends on how you handle it and what the activities are. I'm assuming you're talking about the essay on what you will contribute to the university. If you can clearly tie the activites into specific strengths you will contribute, and do so effectively in 600 words, it could work. However, if either or both of the activities require a lengthy explanation, it may be better to focus in on the one which most clearly demonstrates what you will contribute and why. Remember, they'll still see the other activity on your application.</p>

<p>Any of your essays can be the 600 word one. Your questions are the same as last years right? Last year I believe that my personal statement concentrated on a few activities. I can't quite remember, but I'm sure it'll be fine. I got into all the UC's I applied for which was Berkeley, UCLA, UCSD, UCI, and Davis, so I'm sure you'll do fine. But as the person prior to me state, if one activity does require a lengthy explanation, just stick with it and elaborate on that only because that will truly show how much you contributed to that activity.</p>
