ECONOMICS/ Liberal arts/ History/ Philoshophy; WHY MAJOR? [4]
The third sentence you pointed is not what I mean. My intention might be close to your saying "math and science have a single answer", but I was hesitate to just say that. But, do you think it is fine to just write down?

ECONOMICS/ Liberal arts/ History/ Philoshophy; WHY MAJOR? [4]
Since I was a high school senior, I've intended to major in either economics or history. Especially, economics has been an interesting field because it combines characteristics of both art and science. However, as I study economics more and more, I sometimes think whether I can keep studying economics. While other academic fields like science and math is relatively static, economics which focuses on human relationship have many answers. Even great and renowned economists often made mistakes and clashed with each other on issues because economics embraces a wide range of subjects. I became increasingly uncertain whether studying economics can help me contributing to my communities.
Nevertheless, I want to use my knowledge of economics to make more people's lives easier and more convenient just as new science and technology change our everyday life. As I recently read many books on economics, I got some lessons that many other liberal arts education can help me to understand economics with different perspectives including historic and philosophical views.
Any help? advice?

Youth conservatory program ; COMMON APP ACTIVITY [9]
I like the experience you choose to write about. However, I think that it is somewhat boring. You should have something that can catch the readers' attention. Also, rather than just saying " But through my time spent in the program, my mindset changed completely.", it will be better to "show" how your mind changed (ex. your actions).
Good luck! I hope this helps

The white banner; Common app short answer [5]
I agree with VVCepheiA. My college counselor warned me before that try to avoid something common like community service or club activity. Because colleges want to know something new that's not on your application. Just advice,,,

'the admission office haven't contact me yet' - letter to admission director [2]
This is short email I write for admission office. I might have some grammar and style errors. Please edit for me...
I am writing this email in regard to my application. I believe that you get a large volume of emails from applicants inquiring their admission status.
So, I am sorry if I bother you with this email. As some people already got their acceptance letters, I became a little nervous that the admission office haven't contact me yet. I really transfer to BU.So, please understand that I send the email about this. Did the admission committee reviewed my application? If not, how soon will can I get my admission decision?
Always thank you for your help,
Best Wishes.
