actually, if you can stay clear of the graphic details and describe how you deal with the fact that your father's a porn director and how you view this profession. I'm sure that this would be a much better essay than the dry resume you just posted. AND NEVER POST YOUR ESSAY ONLINE, USE PM

I am cracking up reading this thread. Not sure if it is for real or not. Very entertaining.

Guys, this is obviously a fake. Who in their right mind would talk about directing russian pornos in their harvard application essay? Seriously, who?

as long as he's 18, it's legal...
that's like talking about bar tending, or farming tobacco...

I can't tell if you are being serious or not, but this essay is plain awful and won't get you into harvard much less any school you apply to. You talk about depth and avoiding being superficial, but you end up being superficial and talk about your accomplishments like a laundry list instead of talking about yourself in a deep and mature way. What the hell would you think colleges are interested in knowing your contributions to the porn industry???

This had better be a joke. Your essay is boring even if it's serious. Write about how it matters to you, not how your math skills have mattered to other people.

oh good lord... you directed porn? you have got to be kidding me.

IMHO, your essay is a criticism on the nature of man, linked (or rather, unlinked) with a boring resume in word format.

Hmm, I think it's fine to mention it because Harvard is going to know! They're going to know when you fill out on your application: Father Occupation: Director of Major Porno Company and I mean, he's right. It is business. (no matter how biased I am against this...)

But you can't just list it like it's no big deal like that...Because it is! It's going to give a start to the admissions reader. It's like saying "My cousin was one of the people that was responsible for 9/11..." It's going to be very very controversial. That's my one advice. When readers read that, they're not going to understand or take it the wrong way. So elaborate but make sure you point out the fact that it's your dad's occupation, talk about other people's opinions on the matter, and refute it. You grew up with this "mark" of your dad being president of such a company. Definitely unique and makes you different from other applicants.
