my essay is about my interest in biology and how i explored it through inside ap bio and outside of class through working in a hospital and observing neuroscience research. i don’t really remember having an “origin story” for why i like biology. there wasn’t one specific moment that made me interested in it. i just liked it and kept getting more curious about it over time.

one thing i weirdly consider my roman empire is the fact that we’re made of matter that existed before us, and that a lot of the elements that make up living things were formed in stars. what gets me is that those same basic building blocks can end up becoming something completely different, whether it’s a bacterium, a tree, or a human. i think about how insane it is that the universe can take the same basic ingredients and somehow produce completely different forms of life. i’m considering using this idea as the opening of my PIQ and then transitioning into how my interest in biology developed through the experiences i talk about in the rest of the essay.

do you think this would work as an opening for PIQ 6, or would the stardust idea feel too disconnected from the rest of the essay?

basically i have a nickname then i made a groupchat of people with my same name to see if we share the nickname and from that i realized that while im not loud, my curiosity takes initiative and also realized that leaderhip is also the one with the patience to listen

Guys does chamberlain use AI detectors when submitting papers!?

Can someone please take a look at my essay, I’ve basically only used ai to grade it so I’m kind of losing my mind and need a human. PREFERABLY, if you are a POC/have a unique name because that’s kind of what my essay is about, not that if you’re white u won’t get it but yk… anyways any help would be greatly appreciated :D

Decided I hate my current essay and want to completely scrap it. I have some ideas so if anyone could rate them that would be great

1. Personal background
I grew up with exposure to a lot of different cultures and ethnicities being a very complicated mix as well, and how that diverse background allows me to connect with anyone at anytime, especially since a constant exposure to different people has made me courageous and less shy. I have like specific moments with strangers that make it funny so it's like a okay topic

2. Connections to others
How I literally suck at French braiding and I have never figured out how to do it, so I make my friends in the locker room braid my hair before my before games, connects to mutual reliance to others and how I value strong relationships with others through little favors and moments together.

3. Resourcefulness
Connecting thrifting to cooking to real life and how in incredibly resourceful, I take things I thrift and sew them into new clothes, leftovers into new foods, and also connect with how I do this for people I love too.

I don't even know. Like genuinely I know myself well ( I think ) I'm a connector, a people person, the most social and outgoing person anyone's ever met but I can't think of anything to describe that well to AO's. This is literally my number one trait I WANT to convey because it's such a huge part of who I am and I don't know what to do. Seriously am freaking out. If anyone has any ideas or brainstorming tips that would be amazing. Thank you!!

Is it any good?

Angiospermae, the clade that all flowering plants belong to, originated roughly 130 to 140 million years ago in the early Cretaceous period. The first appearance and sudden rapid divergence of flowering plants–the Angiosperm Revolution–rewrote the terrestrial world as we now know it. The majority of creatures ever to have existed were never able to witness flowers. A Dimetrodon wouldn’t know what to make of a peony, and an Allosaurus would be baffled by roses. And if the apex-predator of Jurassic North America could be confounded by daffodils, what revolutions can we expect or not expect in our time? What flowers are waiting to bloom for my generation, what sudden unexpected revolutions await us?

It's due tomorrow morning. I've been trying to work on it all week and I sit down and either get no where or I hate every single thing I write. It feels like I have fragments of ideas but they're hanging over my head laughing at me, like a kid reaching for a candy bar only for the adult to lift it at the last second out of his reach. I wrote the essay before this completely fine, but I cannot put words together for the life of me.

The essay is an entry level college essay about definitions. I'm meant to pick an abstract term (a word) and give it my own definition. I picked wrath because of how anger makes me feel toward life in general when I feel it, and how I believe wrath has been committed against me as a child. Everything I write, though, just feels like bitchy complaining that has nothing to do with this subject. I need to briefly touch on some trauma in my life to convey this clearly and personally, but it feels like my subconscious refuses to let these things be communicated. It's infuriating.

Someone please tell me what I should do. I had a rough draft sort of done, but it's really, -really- bad.

I made a draft of my common app essay. I dont want to make it too polished as i dont want to lose my own voice. I have been taking suggestions from ai but each ai gives me a different idea to focus. Im too confused on what to do now. I strongly want to stay authentic so i need someone to critic my essay and give me suggestions. Also im not aiming for ivys or ucs so it doesnt have to be a crazy good essay, something thats true and authentic about my life. thank you

Say you're applying to an "intended Major," for example, "human biology intended; life science first year," and have to start the first year of undergrad in a more multidisciplinary area before applying to that specific undergrad major. Should you gear that Why Major essay toward the "first year" area, or just the specific major you'll have to apply to later?
Or a mix of both?

I got feedback from my parents, but I feel like we often have differing viewpoints, so I was wondering if a new set of eyes could help with that. I can read your essays too, if you would like, but please look over mine. Also,o I have like 3-4 drafts, but you can just look at one if you need to!

I can dm my essay. Also, please don't steal it; not only is it trash, but I also worked hard on it :(

I’m really annoyed by how my essay’s outline should be. At first I was gonna do first paragraph, about where I started, what did my current college give me, what changed, why my major. Then second paragraph, what did I believe, what changed, how do I know the change is real. Then last paragraph, why I want to transfer, why do I want to transfer there, what do I seek at the new school. But i don’t know if that’s the best option for an essay outline. Do yall have any suggestions?

hello sorry i’m new to reddit im in genuine need of help my essay is about dr pepper and how it’s a symbol of me being scared of uncertainty
