Anyone else feeling it? I'm just looking for a little empathy that I'm not the lone soul out there furiously screaming at the universe over the approaching deadline.
Can anyone please confirm the scholars essay prompt. My Guidance counselors gave me an old nomination form and I need to make sure it is still the same question!

I totally know how you feel. I hate that the deadline is so early. I've gotten so little done-- my friend recently passed away, and I haven't been able to concentrate. Keep your head up though! We're going to get this done and hopefully make it to the next round! Good luck!

The essay prompt is "Write a brief essay (750 words) about yourself, focusing on one or two of your principal intellectual interests. Try to give the selection committee a sense of how these interests enhance your life and how they relate to your other interests or activities."
