<p>Do you have any evidence?</p>
<p>I suggest getting SilverTurtle to do a study on it.</p>
<p>mk so I know this has probably been addressed somewhere… but just to confirm. Yale SCEA is due at midnight tomorrow, correct? Not in seven hours… right?</p>
<p>I’m kidding… I’m just excited because it used to be 900 words, haha.</p>
<p>No I’m pretty sure it’s due in 7 hours? I’m not sure though.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That would suck for me. Fortunately, however, I’m almost certain that it’s due by tomorrow at midnight EST.</p>

Have you started your essays, yet? You should probably get on that! haha</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I did my main Common App one this morning, and I just wrote my Short Answer EC essay (took about five minutes). I added one sentence to the former essay to make it sort of fit for the first University of Illinois prompt (hopefully they won’t notice that it’s quite a bit longer than their requirement!), and then I revised the Short Answer with a hefty helping of verbosity in order to get close to 300 words for the second U of I prompt. Now onto the Yale supplement…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Damn all of you who can write a great essay in such a short amount of time! Every part of my application takes hours.</p>
<p>I have a feeling that on December 15th, I’m going to be very disappointed that I missed my last Halloween at home to work on my Yale application last minute. :(</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s what CC is all about.</p>
<p>Silverturtle we can apply U of I and Yale SCEA, right?</p>
<p>As long as you’re a resident of Illinois.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yes, ccuser18 is correct.</p>
<p>Hey silverturtle, if you don’t mind, can i read your commonapp essay? </p>
<p>I can lend you mine to edit?</p>
<p>^something smells a little fishy…</p>
<p>lol i am applying to yale rd. There’s no way i can steal his idea and get away wth it if my app is submitted after his! use a little reasoning</p>
<p>@freerhyme,</p>
<p>While I have no reason to believe that you have malicious intentions, I am cautious and will, thus, share my essays only with those whom I seek out.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Please do not insult my reasoning skills. </p>
<p>In fact, it’s reasoning skills that allow us to use caution when sending an essay to a random stranger the day before the deadline.</p>
<p>lol whatever. I’m not going to stir an argument. Silverturtle, can you at least read mine? or ccser18?
Anybody on this forum that wants to read minE?</p>
<p>@freerhyme- I’ll edit yours if you’d like, actually. I’m really, really nervous that, as open-ended as the Yale supplement essay is, mine is still off topic.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t mind reading it. I already submitted my app last week so don’t worry.</p>
