Yale supplement moment in history question [9]
For the Yale supplement, there is a short answer question that asks:
If you could witness one moment in history, what would it be and why?
Is it ok if I answer with this...I am trying to be funny but I don't know it it's appropriate:
George W. Bush was once a cheerleader. I would love to witness him cheer so that I could learn a few moves!

'Quit, you will be better without it' - running common app essay [3]
I agree with karissa. I think the metaphor is extremely cliche. Trite statements like "life is like a piece of music" generally lessen the worth of your essay. Stay away from "Life is like a ____" simply overused...be original:] however, the deadlines are quickly approaching so maybe you should worry less about your common app essay and more about your supps!
