the first sentence is a bit awkward. the first part of your essay when talking about technology although its good you sound like you know what your talking about it loses the attention of the reader. make sure you reveal to the admissions people about you, your story kind of takes away from why they would want you as a student at their school.

One giant bowl of New England ; Boston U [4]
In no more than 250 words, please tell us why BU is a good fit for you and what specifically has led you to apply for admission?
Boston University is like one giant bowl of New England clam chowder. Just like NE clam chowder, BU is comprised of so many great individual elements but when mixed together you experience something amazing. The first ingredient you add is the broth. The broth of the dish is the base of the food. Just as the broth is the base of chowder, BU has a base of the prestigiously known academic rigor that it contains. I have a high interest in majoring in political science. With department chair Graham Wilson I know the department will provide challenging but interesting classes that suit my interests and academic needs. When making NE clam chowder there are many variations to the recipe. BU is similar to this in their unlimited number of choices and variety they provide for their students. BU's understanding that students are at an age where exposing themselves to a variety of things is imperative to their personal growth is very appealing to me. Whether it is the diversity within the students or the immense number of options in extracurricular activities, the BU experience is unique for everyone. One ingredient you cannot forget is the potatoes. Just as the potatoes absorbs the other ingredients in the dish, the students of BU absorb and embrace all of the characteristics of the school to make it complete. At BU I know I will have the opportunity to meet all different types of people. However, I enjoy the small school environment that it provides in the classroom with a student/faulty ratio of 13:1. The combination of these ingredients in NE clam chowder make it something perfect and BU's combination of characteristics will not only allow me to challenge myself but will give me the amenities and resources to expand my knowledge, meet new people, and become part of something great.
please help me narrow down to 250! what can i should i take out? thanks!!!
