<p>So I’m applying in as a transfer. At first I wrote my “Why I want to transfer”, since most transfer apps want that question answered. I was originally going to put that essay as my personal statement, but upon further review… perhaps I should put that as the answer to the first question on the Brown app that states:</p>
<p>“Tell us about the academic areas which interest you most and your reasons for applying to Brown”</p>
<p>While my “Why I want to transfer” essay answers the latter part of the question… it doesn’t really say which academic areas interest me most. </p>
<p>Anyhoo, I’ve brainstormed a bit, and decided what I wanted to write for my personal statement (the freeform one). While most people write about their achievements, I think the essay should focus on my character and personal qualities. However… this essay would talk a bit about the academic area I wish to pursue… What do you guys think?</p>
<p>If I was confusing, here’s a quick wrap up:
Essay question 1 = half answered
Essay question 6 = will complete essay question 1 and then some.</p>
