How important is listing the Reasons for "Why Emory" compared to the actual Why?

<p>For example, one of the biggest reasons why i want to go to Emory is the close student to teacher relationships and abundant lab opportunities(43%!!!)</p>

<p>My entire essay focused around “Why science is important to me and why i feel it is important to persevere as much for others as for ourselves”. I then explained/stated the quality of interest that “Emory has exceptionaly abundant research opportunities and student-teacher relationships” reason at the end. </p>

<p>What do you think? Just worried i focused too much on the Why as opposed to the What?</p>

<p>Can’t say much without reading your essay, but part of your last sentence is really clique. The admissions probably take pills to forget about “student to teacher relationship” when they wake up every morning. However, the research opportunities is worth mentioning.</p>
