Book Reports / How does Hamlet use wit via an extended metaphor to show his rancor and hurt? [2]

I might be wrong, it is possible that this is exactly what your teacher is looking for, but when you add descriptive words in some places it makes the essay grueling to read and detracts from whatever point you are trying to make.

"leave him empty and hollow, but consequently take his life." maybe replace but consequently with and also

you have a strong essay but it is not easy to read.

to finish the essay, perhaps restate your original thesis and then write why it matters in the context of the book and why the context of the book matters in real life.

you say "he also acquires insight on what makes a friend truly a friend. " - what is it that makes a friend truly a friend? answering this question might help add weight to what you learned by reading Hamlet. Right now it sounds kind of like "Hamlet learns stuff about friends" but in a really academic way

Undergraduate / Academia is a major connection point between people. USC college essay 250 word short essay. [4]

Describe your academic interests and how you plan to pursue them at USC. Please feel free to address your first- and second-choice major selections (250 word limit).

Academia is a major connection point between people. It standardizes ideas so that an entire nation of people can relate; using common ideas as their vehicles. In my experience, school exposed me to thinking that I wouldn't have been aware of otherwise. I have participated in colloquiums offered by my school which allowed me to volunteer with Red Cross, learn about yoga and meet the Dutch Consul. I have spoken with people I had just met about Camus and Kafka, as well as current events which were discussed in my social sciences classes. What interests me most in academia are the art forms. Artists pursue knowledge and understanding in a single topic to create a piece. Whether the medium is dance, film, ceramics, drama, writing or anything else, the artist's goal is to present their inner conversation about an issue of interest so that the viewer understands. That is my goal when I create things.

In the center of business, culture and the beautiful city of Los Angeles, USC is my dream school. I will pursue my academic life here through studying business but also taking arts classes. Business is essentially about understanding other people. I think USC is the perfect place for me to put that to practice with its impressive academics and internship opportunities. Being a student at USC will help me grow and develop into the world-class communicator I want to become.
