<p>I gave up on the application because I didn’t have time to write a good essay for the supplement, and I’d rather not apply than subject the admissions people to a rushed/poorly written essay (and receive another rejection letter come Spring). </p>
<p>But today I got an email saying that if I still want to apply, I should submit my application by Friday. Is the deadline flexible then?–would it be worth trying to finish the supplement for Friday, or would I not have much of a chance because I turned it in late?</p>
