<p>So right now, I still have to click the submit button for dartmouth, upenn, chicago, penn, yale, princeton, and stanford (I have safeties and matches; these are my extreme reaches)
Right now, I have three potential essay topics to choose from. Two are very good, but both are on kind of repetitive topics (i.e. how I’ve changed since high school)
The third one is a bit different. I can’t really go into the nature of it since it is extremely personal, but in my opinion it is one of the best essays I’ve ever written. It essentially deals with body image and self consciousness (I’m a guy though)
My question is: Which of the above schools would most prefer to see such a topic? Are any of the colleges mentioned particularly conservative in their admissions policies?
Oh, some background information:
SAT: CR 780 M 760 W 760
GPA: 3.59 (about top 15-20% with most demanding schedule at avg high school)</p>
<p>My gpa seems very low for the school’s I’ve mentioned, but my SAT, Strength of Curriculum and Extra Curriculars are all excellent. Is it worth it to risk a potentially awesome but potentially too revealing essay?</p>
<p>Thank you very much</p>
