My parents are dead set against it. Wanna offer me an opinion?

So, the 'rents are dead set against my ED JHU essay - as in they are refusing to allow me to so much as try for JHU if I don't rewrite the essay on a different subject. They say it's too risky; I think I may be willing to take that risk of lessening my chances, not to mention that if they abstain, I'll have no chances at all. Anyone wanna read my essay and offer a third opinion? Oh, and offer criticism, of course. I'll be happy to do an exchange.

I can read it, and I don't think it's bad to be risky either.
