SUNY Downstate Secondary

[DrVanNostran]

I am having trouble with this question:

11. If you are not from the New York City metropolitan area (Five Boroughs), describe what personal experiences prepare you to live and study in New York City, and what will be your personal support system?

I know what to talk about for the personal support part, but personal experiences...hmmmm......

I have lived close or near home my entire life? I can only think about leadership activities, etc...any advice?

11? Are there really that many questions?

4 mini-essay type questions. It's not that bad.

They probably mean living in a city like New York. I wrote mine based on my upbringing in Alexandria. Your profile says your from Chicago, so describing where you grew up will probably satisfy them. Good luck

thanks for the reply, I ended up talking about chicago

so we gotta dig up a typewriter for this sucker, or does a program other than adobe reader let us fill in the blanks?

 

[dittozip]

If you can get your hands on Adobe Indesign you can simply overlay text boxes on existing untouchable adobe files. that is what i did for my college apps. worked like a charm.

Okay. Work with me here.

Remember in the movie, "Castaway", how Tom Hanks had "Wilson"??
I think you should come up with something similar. Maybe make it a baseball or something else, you know, for originality. Wilson is your support system. See? Easy Peasy.
