Alright so I've not done shit for my essay for my boulder application and I have to finish it by school tomorrow. Has anyone written one this year and want to help me out with what to say? We had a snow day so I've been fucked up since 12 and now I can't think of shit to say wanna help me out?
and does anyone know if the essay helps that much wtih getting in? it says its optional and i have a 3.6 weighted and good act scores so not sure if i really need to write one cause im retarded right now

i was in the same position you were. day before... looks promising regardless. I forget what the topic was (it was a few years ago), but hell, show the effort. If you can write a decent few paragraphs it'll look better than skipping it.

did you write it on the colorado creed or the open option? i wrote mine on open option. from what i remember, it was about setting goals, accomplishing things, all that. i went over the 1-2 page limit though, cause i used an essay i had written before and got an A on it. regardless, i think it looks good, so just write a few paragraphs on how you accomplish things, challenge yourself, whatever.
