If you have an example then by all means. That is where my advocacy essay went - granted I had an official role that allowed for such advocacy. If your version of advocacy is supporting someone who is unlike you, then that answers the prompt.
True that. They list “Americorps” and “Peace Corps” as awards...Is “Army” in the same boat? Lol
Did they not have a separate question asking about the military? It seems like most secondaries do, but I forget whether Duke did or not. They all seem to be running together now.
No they do not. Imma YOLO it. Just Check "Other" and will put "United States Armed Forces" or "United States Army (or Army Reserves?)"
Honestly, I think that's reasonable.
Righty'O. Which verbiage do you think is best?
Idk. Armed forces?
Disregard. To any other idiots, there is both a "policy agreement" check box in addition to the "review confirmation" check box.
Git it. She took me three days to finalize....She’s a beast
As an ORM? I would say nah. The stats just aren’t there for what they want, despite the good ECs. I would make your school list 50/50 Low tier MD and any DO.
I believe in you.
I hit between 440 and 490 in ever essay. “Tell is about you” should be about your identities and background making you - you. Your community should be about the environment surrounding what makes you, you.
I did, but I have strong reasons. I would not use it for fluff or bs.
Good idea, burning the fluff. Btw, I see you're also a man (or woman) of applying-to-way-too-many-schools culture. Love to have fellow masochists in it to win it.
The only difference between myself and the people I advocated for was that we reacted differently to the same stressful situations. They cracked, I didn’t. That is my difference and I think it made for a good essay and compelling story.
I believe I remember reading somewhere that you are automatically considered for regular MD.
I just heard from some friends at Duke that this actually may not be the case, so I emailed the office. Will report back if anyone else is considering the program!
Do you maybe have the Dn'D community? MTG? Competitive gaming? Weed culture...?
How long were you in football? Was it long enough and were there enough 'lessons learned' that you can talk about the community of football as where you were 'nurtured'?
I hate sports but even I agree that it is a good topic for this prompt.
"The community that nurtured me was that of competitive sports and gaming. Whether playing the blue eyes white dragon, conquering argentina, or catching the game-winning thorw, I have always endured under the fire of glorious teamwork. Just as the Paladin Leroy Jenkins charges in to combat, I was brought in to maturity by the might of my team. Through all of the shoots and ladders of life....."
You're on a roll man, wanna write my critical thinking essay for me?
There are a couple of cool board game stores/bars in Durham, so Duke may actually like to see that you could enjoy being there.
No joke, this would get three types of reactions:
I didn't even catch the "with respect to its demographics" part. Whatevs, talking about the military being both fraternal and engulfed in toxic masculinity should gimme some brownie points?
