Which Essay to Use?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Harvard University

<p>So I'm stuck between re-using my UChicago essay or my Yale essay for Harvard. I did "Find X" for UChicago, so it'd be really, really obvious that I re-used another school's essay, but I really feel like it's a stronger essay that shows off more aspects of my personality. (I called "x" happiness and used a "mathematical equation" to define happiness that used three distinct memories from my life.) On the other hand, the Yale essay is less of a blatant re-using, and it's shorter. (I wrote about my mild obsession with cupcakes for Yale, lol). </p>

<p>Anybody want to quickly read through both and give me an opinion on which one I should use? Or give me an opinion without reading them would be fine too. <em>is indecisive</em></p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Thanks harvard76, I PM’d you.</p>

<p>Anyone else? You’ll get virtual cupcakes and/or my everlasting love! (Though the former’s probably worth more… =P)</p>

<p>You can PM me to read them if you want; I’d be happy to. However, just so you know, I am a 2015 applicant. I’ve sent my Harvard application in already, though (as should you ASAP! I feel your pain, though, so I’d be happy to help.).</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
