<p>hey thanxz for the advice. but i heard tad UCSD takes the point system very seriously. So do u think it’s more useful to write an essay regarding my grandmother’s death or an essay on how i achieved a black belt in Tae-Kwon-Doe (btw. I haven’t won any awards since i quit rite after i got my certification) ^-^;;; or some other achievement?</p>
<p>grandmother’s death and how it affected you is a great essay.</p>
<p>i’m going to write something on a similar topic.</p>
<p>you can earn up to 500 points for a personal challange.</p>
<p>i second The Brian’s advice. Grandmothers death will help points wise. I also will be writing something similar to that( but not grandmother)</p>
<p>so all of a sudden everyone has a relative that passed away and ucsd is going to recieve thousands of essays about how the death has affected them. the admissions ppl are gonna love that…</p>
<p>i wrote the same sob story when i applied so i guess they symphasize when reading these essays… thats the way to work the system ya’ll</p>
<p>lol.</p>
<p>chipsahuy is my role model.</p>
<p>Well, only write about something if it really happened.</p>
<p>Knowing him, he probably lied about that too.</p>
