Undergraduate / How being Brazilian has given me a different perspective [5]

Your essay is written very well. The imagery is amazing.

have gathered practical knowledge and different perspectives from my experiences in Brazil.

Are you going to make a reference to the kinds of practical knowledge that visiting Brazil has given you?

As the van jiggled atop the unpaved, rocky streets I embraced the beautiful scenery. Everything was green, as far as I could see, with a splash of the sky blue and glowing yellow, combined to make the national colors of Brazil. I have always loved observing the people walking in the streets instead of being cooped up inside. When we finally arrived at my grandmother's colorfully painted house, aunts, uncles, and cousins emerge to greet us.

This part seems a bit out of place to me.

The conclusion is really good and after you include the details of the culture shock you'll be finished.

Undergraduate / Interview/Top-ranked curriculum/ Q&A sessions ; Why Georgia Tech?Contribute? [2]

Okay so I procrastinated a little bit and I need to have these finished by Monday, I'm running out of room on the contribution part and I've already cut so much.

The end kinda stinks a lot so I don't know what to do about it

The prompt it this -
Why are you interested in attending Georgia Tech and what do you hope to contribute to our community?
No more than 1000 characters.

For a school project, I was required to interview an electrical engineer and happened to contact a engineer at Georgia Tech. After my project-related questions were over, I inquired about the university she worked at. Her enthusiasm during the discussion of the institute sparked my own interest and I promised her that I would research the programs that Georgia Tech offered. The school has research opportunities, co-op programs, and a multitude of engineering degrees. I found that through Georgia Tech's top-ranked curriculum, I could explore the engineering disciplines and obtain the real world experience that I need to be successful. Also, Georgia Tech's students have a lot of school pride. From Q&A sessions with recruiters to casual conversations with alumni, everyone I spoke with only had the best to say about the institution.

Throughout my college career, I will contribute my dedication and hard-work mentality to help other students and and myself prepare for the expectations of the real world.
