<p>Haha, well I heard they're cutting down their quota for people like me.</p>
<p>I would agree with you on the admissions process for the arts and sciences....but remmeber, I have the wonderful 10% acceptance rate for school of arch to deal with. I think the breakdown in my neck of the woods is a little more depressing.</p>
<p>"4.0-3.8, in if not axe murderer or sex offender"</p>
<p>Hahaha, too bad I don't quite make that cut-off. I'll be in the 3.79-2.7 pile and definitely no Mother Theresa. Maybe an A in English Comp and a good rec from the prof will help with my so-so essay. Then again, maybe with the A and rec they would expect to see more writing capability. :(</p>

<p>Yeah I have an A in english comp too....they're going to see that then my essay and think that I payed some bum to write it for me in 10 minutes.</p>
<p>Well buckeye, you and I seem to be in the same boat, with very similar stats as I recall.</p>
<p>"4.0-3.8, in if not axe murderer or sex offender"</p>
<p>"I don't make that cutoff"</p>
<p>Does that mean you're an axe murderer? 0_o</p>

<li> Take out both the commas in the first sentence (after the last semicolon)</li>
<li>3rd Sentence second paragraph, take out "i don't know why" and say something like, "I noticed several homeless people...." or something along those lines</li>
<li> "I dont know why, but I was
surprised to see so many homeless people. This
certainly wasnt my first encounter with
homeless people. I worked in New York City and
encounter homeless people every day." - A lil redundant with the phrase "homeless people" and the grammar mistake with the past tense caught earlier.</li>
<li>Nex paragraph first sentence...replace the word person with "man"</li>
<li>"While others were aggressively
panhandling, he was just sitting on a step. His
head was slumped into is hands." Just the sentence structure. Make it....While others were aggressively panhandling, he was just sitting on a step, his head slumped in to his hands BTW..."in to" not "into" common mistake, i used to make it all the time til my english profes got on my ass about it</li>
<li> Next sentence..."pathologist's" change to pathologists</li>
<li> Next sentence...change to..."I could tell he hadn't eaten for days from the way his clothes hung off of his body."</li>
<li> Take out "So" in the begining of the next sentence.</li>
<li>"As i returned to the step..." change to "When I returned to the step..."</li>
<li> Sentence after that...change to..."I searched the entire street, but the famished man was nowhere to be found."</li>
<li> Next paragraph second sentence...change bothered to bothers...passive voice...just a pet peeve of professional readers.</li>
<li> "of the starvation" change to "of starvation"</li>
<li> "My only hope is that..." change to...."I hope that...."</li>
<li> Last paragraph....grammar...sentence fragments.
Reccomendation:
I will have my "best day" whenever I am able to bring about a change in the world. Whether it be by building houses with Habitat for Humanity, or donating millions of dollars to a worthy cause, I'll find satisfaction in the fact that I helped ease human suffering.</li>
