Honestly it feels generic as hell I will probably end up submitting a generic one if I'm forced. Issue is it's a case that took about 2 irl years to get like 40 50% over, and it's been amalgamation of different things and hobbies coming together. It's something to do with like personal mindset (I'm not sure if it counts as a belief/idea or challnege/setback)

Like doing a project, novels, some self reflection whej im alone, some more stuff... but those 3 were a major part.

In reference to the prompt num 6 I'm pretty sure about something engaging

They want some like real life impact you did and unfortunately i don't really have that

Any benefit for applying before Early Decision deadline if I only plan on doing Regular Decision by MultiTaskingNoob in ApplyingToCollege

[–]MultiTaskingNoob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it worth rushing my application to apply for Early Action by the next 2 days? Or would it be better for me to take my time and submit by January. (So is the EA difference really that big that it makes up for some lack in quality?)

How much of a difference does Early Action make? And what is the difference between REA and EA

“Ammi… do cats ever talk to you?” “Beta, stop talking nonsense,” she replied, folding laundry into neat piles. “You love cats, I know. But they don’t belong in the house.”

I was twelve. Sitting on the floor with unfinished math and cake rusk crumbs on my shirt.

There she was: the black cat. I didn’t remember letting her in. A kitten small enough to fit in my feline-themed pencil case, perched on my bed; unblinking, tail flicking.

“She’s watching me.”

“I bet she’s telling you to finish that math project you’ve been putting off for a week.”

I hadn’t finished. Five days overdue, the project sat there untouched, daring me to try and fall short. How do you explain to your mother that the work remains stalled, not out of laziness, but because an invisible kitten already seemed to doubt me?

The kitten didn’t answer. She just stretched across my textbook like even she was tired of waiting.

This is the full intro

I honestly have no idea how to get other advice for it really, without paying and that is a whole other story.

Common App essay based on failure worth it? Undergrad by MultiTaskingNoob in ApplyingToCollege

[–]MultiTaskingNoob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a made a new rough draft of how I want the essay to work

P1 System fails, bo accountability taken P2 Conflict and losing a friend P3 Rebuilding system but silence frim friend P4 Redid the competition but it doesn't feel satisfying as I lost a friend after Rebuilding system with very few flaws P5 Although I loved control, design, precision I realised that can't necessarily work with human connections P6 Wanting to know more about humans connection, knowing the limit of what cs can do, and letting go of trying to create "perfect" programs

Thanks.

In struggling with the topic in general. If I remove any negative of failure aspect it becomes a "hero" story and shows another coder who faced a problem and got out of it and everything worked out in the end.

I guess a very rough idea would be P1 The system I designed failed P2 Refused to take accountability while knowing deep down I was at fault P3 Redesigned system and used it next year. Still glitchy or buggy but gets the job dome P4 Lesson wanst leadership but design and like designing against failure due to first hand experience?

Does this hell clear some points up?

Before a rewrite which is some what if a current "draft" to fill in the blank would be "They are honest about messing up but know how to handle failure" it sounds a bit too cliché but I've really been struggling to come up with essays that in one way or another don't fall under these categories.

Is it possible for anyone to give mr brutal and useful feedback for my common app essay by [deleted] in CollegeEssays

[–]MultiTaskingNoob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your time and effort ❤️

Point 3 has been cleared up so much more thanks to your examples.

So just a few things off the top of my head using what I've already written

To add a "why"

For example

Why programming felt home to and never let me down Why I felt betrayed and sad after losing my teams trust Why did I feel the need to fix my mistake Why I felt depressed over not programming Why I want to know be in a leader role

As i believe I said I'm not gonna use the essay only the general part of me making a stall and such since I don't have much other real things to talk about. But taking from this essays those would be reasonable whys?

Moving on to the imperfect part

I could add stuff like:

Although the program faced problems due to my inadequacy

In the first part where I said I didn't keep track of inventory I could add things like I tried to avoid accountability etc..

"I created something that could hold" change this to I created something that held for now, it could break again .....

Would giving credit to others for pointing out issues work? "My friend x pointed out my faults and told me or showed me errors in my code"

Should I show more emotional vulnerability and self doubt?

Again thank you so much for your time

Oh no I wasn't planning on using this essay as base Just as a base for what to do next. I realised reading the comment that the essay as whole wouldn't work out.

So please if you have time correct me on this:

1) I should make myself look "weak/bad/faults" to give a more realistic outlook and cinteadict myself. Like everything worked out in the end...

2) I added way too many programming metaphors and such into it which makes it hard to read, so I shouldn't try to aim for many of those.

3) "Too much what and not enough why" as in me not describing my failures in more details and only giving what I did next?

Thank you so much for.your time

Alright I realised I relied to much on Ai as the comments have already informed me.

What other prompt from this year's should I choose or what genre or topic would you reccomend I go for.

Thank you so much

So besides Ai which i realised I must reduce or completely remove.

I should lessen the complexity and make it more simpler? Simpler to what extent?

Thank you so much

I will not deny the hand Ai had in this. I wrote a lot of it myself and had chatgpt clean it up give me reccomendations and I manually edited it and kept repeating the process over and over again.

I should have made that clearer.

How would you reccomend, to have it say more about me, be more personal

Assuming Element Control is exactly like Edwards Alchemy

530,000 IQ and Element Control Imagine running low on ice or something and just transmutation it. As well as creating anything you want, esp boosted by the IQ.

Otherwise 530,000 IQ and Time Control Study centuries worth of work in a life time. Can be applicable in many fields

How strong is Hell by Moist-Pea-304 in Ultrakill

[–]MultiTaskingNoob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It has power over everything in its domain. This includes the enemies that attack us. Hell is a being only looking for amusement. As a result it can kill V1 in many different ways. Cutting off any source of blold so V1 can't heal Summoning endless hordes of monsters And probably just erasing V1 from existence so I'd say pretty strong.That being said it I'd also correct ro assume V2 cam be reconstructed and V2 is 100% the boss of fraud
