for that one, i might just slightly modify the diversity essay that a lot of schools are asking for...
the diversity essay can be used on like every prompt for every school its great:meanie:
 
So I got stung by a bumblebee like 3 or 4 times yesterday as I finished cutting the grass, and now my leg is large and it hurts and itches like hell!
Damn you cortizone cream for not working quick enough!
On the other hand, though, I will be submitting my Baylor secondary tonight and my LSU one tomorrow.
I finished my LSU secondary on Thursday but haven't been able to submit because of the crappy hours the post office keeps, since it's hard to go there during hours when you're working those hours. Stupid big envelopes.
I hate federal/bank hours!!!
 
That's when I plug in stuff about hurricanes and ecology classes.
It's about all I can come up with.
I was reading in last years USC thread, some girl put something about her pet frog...or something stupid like that. She was actually accepted to USC so i think that shows you dont have to have diversity through extreme hardship or race!! 😛

Oh crap! I need to put something about my pet snake and tortoise!
Acceptances here I come. :laugh:
 
I know! Luckily, my grad student mentor does the rest. So I don't have to wait an hour.:meanie:

Luckily? The use of the actual PCR product and getting results is where all the fun of the science is

I don't even have cool pets. 🙁
 
Raining again. 😀

Yeah, I was hit by rain about 4 times between NOLA and BR today and yesterday. But it's good, we really needed it (even though it makes it hotter).
You can tell how ridiculously hot it is when the rain is turning to water vapor on the street and it's about 2 hours past sunset.
 
actually, do you guys think a diversity essay is what they're looking for with the BCM prompt?

" Indicate any special experiences, unusual factors or other information you feel would be helpful in evaluating you, including, but not limited to, education, employment, extracurricular activities, prevailing over adversity. "

that is textbook diversity for the most part. Things that make you diverse are things that that are unusual factors or special experiences. They can be seperate things certainly ( I wrote something a little different for this prompt then my diversity one) but i think its perfectly fine to use something about diversity.

If its not to personal to ask, what did you use for your diversity essay?

It's pretty much a tell us whatever you want prompt. There's no wrong answer.

i actually have 2 essays about separate topics, since USC requires it. For one i talked about being a supervisor for the organization that handles all the computing issues in the dorms, so leading a team in a professional setting. And for the other one I wrote about being a bioengineering major and having contact with that side of medicine. i'll probably just use one of them, since the prompt references both education and employment.

I like the computing issues one just based on topic alone but both would work 🙂
 
oh yes, we need to be professional with our essays 🙂
 
It's not like being in the state makes you stupid. I've lived here for 20 years and I'm semi-normal. Besides we have good food.

amen to that. new orleans has that fried dough specialty and the fried meats with mayo on french bread...yum!!
 
i'm kinda surprised, this thread has been like a machine gun all day. are people off eating dinner or something?
