Undergraduate / UIUC Supplementary Essay_Explain your experience related to your first-choice major. [2]
This can be an experience from an extracurricular activity, in a class you've taken, or through something else. (150 words)
I want to apply as Astrophysics, but I do not have any specific activity related to it except that I am crazy to look at the sky lying on asphalt everyday and observe the moon and Jupiter with my grandfather's telescope. I have no idea how high school students can have any actual experiences about Astrophysics. Even though I am so much passionate about Astrophysics and the universe, my real experience is weak.
Thus, I am considering to choose my first major as Business or Engineering, about which I have more to say with my start-up club experience or tutoring/experiments experience. However, since these majors are much more competitive than Astrophysics, I cannot make a decision.
Please help me with choosing my first major and contents of for this essay prompt. Thanks.
