Undergraduate / PRACTICAL PHYSICS. This is my Yale essay I was wondering if the first sentence was a catchy one [5]
Reflect on a time in last few years when you felt genuine excitement learning about something (200 words or fewer)
Calculate the time it takes for the pendulum to move 20 oscillations each for the varying lengths of the string and hence plot a graph of period against length. We were in second year in high school and this was the first time we had physics practical. I had studied the theory for year without entering the laboratory. It was now time to prove the amazing facts I had studied for a year. I was so ecstatic.
The class started with simple harmonic motion; we were to conduct an experiment and prove the relationship between the period of an oscillating pendulum and its length. I always found physics class interesting, but to enter the laboratory was to enter a world of proof and no controversy. Proving some of the greatest facts is unlike any other. Conducting these experiments, I felt like "whoa I'm actually doing what the likes of Einstein and Newton did many years ago to come out with these mind racking discoveries."
My love for the subject and its practicalities has made the laboratory a second home to me. A place where I can someday achieve greatness. A sanctuary where I may someday come up with a Nobel winning discovery
the words are 202/200

i like the first paragraph but i think the first sentence of the second paragraph is not relevant you should try to relate something more personal
