<p>this topic is so interesting… well, cuz i’m not applying to Princeton so I dont follow this forum so much…
one of my friends, who is a chinese btw, wrote some political stuffs in his essay to Princeton as well. I have to say, he is the most passionate and the smartest person i’ve ever met. Unfortunately, he was deffered from ED.
Just to let you know, it will be very risky. As you can see people’s reaction on the forum, you can imagine the same reaction from the adcoms who read your essay. THey may have different points of view, some will like and some will not. But isnt it what you try to do is to make them all like you? So, be careful about the way you say it!!!</p>
