i would suggest considering another career path, what do you plan on doing when they ask you to write essay's that cannot contain 100% bullshit?

I did the same essay 3 weeks ago just before I submitted my app.

I did my sister (3 years older), just do someone like a boss, a coach a older sibling, or just a mentor in general.

I would advise against parents though.

No one on here can help you very much, at all.

You asked kids who have no clue who you are to help you write half a page on someone in your life, and you're calling other people on this website stupid?

Makes sense.

If you're from out-of-state you could write about the guy selling crack on the corner and you'd still get in.

Have fun paying 30k+ a year just in tuition.

im definitely going to get a good amount of money, so im not too worried.

and also, i never asked anyone to choose someone in my life... i asked people to give me ideas on the writing? how to format the paper etc... to choose to talk about my own life or how to make it flow..

but you know das cool too guys

From a website on google...



"Because, remember, while you absolutely DO need others on your road to creating a great life filled with accomplishment and love, you need yourself even more.

You are the key...

You are the most influential person in your life...

If you learn the most empowering ways to communicate with yourself every waking hour and learn how to talk yourself into feeling fantastic, you will feel fantastic... even if 99% of humanity would be wilting.

If you learn how the "best" use their minds to happily achieve their amazing feats of accomplishment with energy to spare, you will be able to do the same..."

how to format a 250 page paper? at that word count, it can't even be considered a paper. honestly, I'm going to go with everyone else here by saying "why the fuck would you post such a question here?" it should take you twenty minutes TOPS to think it out and write it well.

I swear...at this rate kids will start to asking how to wipe their own asses or eat or breathe...
