I'm having aerious problems with the Amherst essay.
I'm responding to:
"Justice seems to require us to take the perspective of an impartial observer Often this perspective seems to clash with the perspective that most of us take in our daily lives where ties of love, commitment, friendship and professional responsibilities seem not only to permit, but to demand, that we treat people unequally."

I'm having problems finding suitable examples. I agree with the quote. Also, hwo do I bring my personality across through this topic?

btw. what were your sat scores? and your examination results??
SAT II: M2: 760, Physics: 780, Chem: 800
I got a 114 / 120 in my TOEFL, but Amherst waived my TOEFL score submission requirement because of my 800 in SAT CR.
My examinations are all Indian ones. However, I did get state first in an English exam conducted by Macmillan in association with the University of New South Wales in Australia. This was in 10th grade.
