"Why Penn" essay idea

<p>For my “Why Penn” essay, I’m writing about this special biochemistry program that I really would like to get into if I was accepted. I’m basically saying I wanna go to Penn because it is one of the few schools that offers such a research orientated program in biochemistry for undergraduates.</p>

<p>Is this is a good idea? Should I also include some activities at Penn I would like to join?</p>

<p>Thanks for the help!</p>

<p>explain what you like and what your interests are, then explain how Penn meets them</p>
