Videogames + Personal Statement?

Heh…I can say for sure that most people wouldn’t think that’s a good idea. Some people were a bit surprised when I wrote one of my Personal Statements on Anime. I have yet to find out whether or not that’s a bad thing, but personally, I wouldn’t want to accept them if they don’t accept me for it. ( = v = )

Still, your not really trying hard in school is pretty worrisome. There’s still the general courses to take, and if your passion for video games gets in the way of that in college, that will definitely be a problem. As a result, the colleges would be wary of accepting you.

But if you’re passionate about it, I’d say go for it. “How I survived through a tough time” is typical, but if it’s genuine, that’s fine too. The way you phrased it though, implies that you really don’t want to, so you really just might as well stick with writing about video games.

As for your “butt load of Extra curriculars,” it’s quality over quantity. A laundry list of extracurriculars really doesn’t help much if you’re not actually dedicated to them.

And now you should wait for other people’s opinions. They might totally negate everything I say.
