i'm applying to school of engineering... and you?..... must be a tough competition for you ... especially because your country has so many good applicants...
no...but i think u are a good applicant to northwestern...ur SAt1 and Sat 2s are very good..... how about your essays i think they are most important part in admission process.. have you already applied or are u still applying to northwestern....
Thanks! I've worked really hard on my essays, and I think they have come out really well.. I gave it to my friend to ask her to tell me how its turned out and she said that it has come out well... i am yet to apply... just working on the last essay, once i get that done i will apply... probably by monday
hi guys. i wrote my essay for the northwestern supplement and had someone read it.... they said it wasn't personal enough and that i should try to add something to make it more personal.. any suggestions? like favorite parts of northwestern? i haven't had a chance to visit yet. i'm applying to arts and sciences. thanks guys.
Is this one about the "Why Northwestern" essay? I think its better to not to mention any favorite parts of NU etc, if you havent really visited the campus... Try to talk more about why the college of arts and sciences at NU appeals to you.... I am not sure if this is very helpful, but I say, just write what you really feel... I havent visited the campus either, so I just wrote my essay on what I actually knew.... All the best though! And you to pacific34!
thanx for the help shrutibaskaran...... I summited my app....but I had to request the admission officer to upload my esssay after submission of commonapp..but I think the admission officer was quite co-operative....best of luck everybody......I hope no one commited mistake like mine!!!!!!!!....
