<p>Am sorta confused about this one… Sometime back, I really worked very hard to design a solar cooker for my school’s physics lab, which could be used as a model for the younger students… I conceptualized the idea, and sat and created it from scratch and tested it… It achieved a heating effeciency of about 120 degrees… </p>
<p>But, I am also interested in submitting a poem I wrote in the thing I created part… I really liked the poem a lot… And now I am torn between the two… Which one should I put in? I like both the works equally!! :(</p>
<p>acc 2 me… most of d students would b submittin sum or d odr research paper… submittin a nic poem would probably shw odr part of urs vich isn’t there in rest of d application (dats wot d optional essay is ol abt) … + u cn mention bou d solar cooker sumwer els in d app…</p>
<p>You mean you like your essay about the solar cooker, or the solar cooker itself as much as your poem?</p>
<p>I’d suggest having several people read both of them so you can gauge which one is more interesting to a reader.</p>
<p>The solar cooker sounds awesome, but just from personal experience, many of my early essay drafts were about really cool things that I just couldn’t pull good essays out of because they necessitated boring, methodical descriptions (“I did A and B and C, but I realized D and then E happened”)</p>
<p>A) You didn’t specify whether your solar cooker achieved 120* Celsius or Farenheit. Shame on you!</p>
<p>B) I hope rsv doesn’t really talk like that (in case you haven’t noticed rsv, a large part of the educated masses that roam the internet use good english, not undecipherable gibberish.</p>
<p>Lol! Sorry… 120 degree celsius… Was able to boil water and steam cook rice… (We generally refer to temperature in terms of celsius out here!) :D… I liked the solar cooker I created as much as my poem… But I think I will do what rhodium suggested… Thanks! N looks like rsv is using text msg language!</p>
