Cereality: My "Why Penn" essay

<p>Anyone want to read it? I liked it.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I applied to 11 schools, and was very much essay-ed out, so I didn’t do Penn’s optional essay. They got my common app essay, and the why Penn essay, but not the third one. Does that hurt my chances a lot? Honestly I thought my personality came out really strongly in my other two (for my common app essay I wrote about Quark, my adopted penguin who lives in South America, and my love of physics).</p>

<p>you adopted a penguin!?
how very rad</p>

<p>um yeah pm it</p>

<p>sure, i’ll read</p>

<p>I’ll give a read…</p>

<p>I applied to 13 schools so I was in the same position as you with my essays… But luckily for me one of my other essays fit nicely into Penn’s third prompt.</p>

<p>Sounds interesting…pm it over.</p>

<p>pm me…</p>

<p>I hope I can trust you guys, I’m so paranoid that Penn will think I stole it if they find it online anywhere. It’s all PMed.</p>

<p>Oh, and be honest, but not harsh, cos there’s nothing I can do to change it now! I’m a math/science person, what can I say.</p>

<p>Aw, I’d like to read the Quark essay, actually. Several of the people who posted were already accepted to Penn ED, so I don’t think you have to worry.</p>

<p>haha you didnt send anything to me… .send it again?</p>

<p>Hey Quark… I’ll show you mine if you show me yours ;)</p>

<p>hey of course ill read it</p>

<p>I’ll read it! :)</p>

<p>ill be happy to read it!!!</p>

<p>ya i really wanna read it too…a penguin?</p>

<p>yes i wanna read! ive got too much free time :)</p>

<p>I’ll read it.</p>

<p>lol quark, you sent me a message, but you didn’t include the essay! id still like to read it if you want another opinion. and you can trust I won’t steal it-I already applied RD to Penn.</p>

<p>Ah, I’m a ditz! </p>

<p>Okay, I’ll try to PM people my Quark essay, which was my main common app essay that I sent to all my schools.</p>

<p>EDIT Mkay, apparently private messages don’t work for essays! I guess I should email, then? Oy! It’s a shame I can’t just post it, but I’m so paranoid.</p>

<p>quark ill read your penn essay. sounds rly interesting with the penguin lol</p>

<p>Send the essay in 2 pm’s. Like, if its too long, then split it.</p>
