Which aspects of Tufts' curriculum or undergraduate experience prompt your application? In short: ''Why Tufts?''

At Tufts I hope to follow my dream of some day becoming a doctor. At the same time, I would like to pursue other interests, such as language and culture. Not far from the busy city of Boston, I feel that that Tufts will provide me with the active and diverse environment I need to thrive.

Self-identity and personal expression take many forms. Use the richness of your life to give us insight: Who are you? (200 words)

I am a listener. Those who know me speak to me without difficulty, certain that they will be heard. These could be people I just met, or people I've known for as long as I can remember. My ears do not discriminate by race, age, or gender. I will lend my ears to anyone, whether it is one of my parents or someone I might meet on the train. All they need to do is talk. When this isn't possible, my eyes can take over and do the listening; I will understand. I am no amateur when it comes to body language.

Along with body language, I take pride in learning and understanding other languages, whether for necessity or because of interest. Despite all this, it's important to know that I am not well versed in the language of silence. I am an active listener, and I will tell you my opinion in the hopes of helping you out. In addition, while I may appear to be a quiet and timid person, I assure you that I can and will express myself, if necessary. I love to listen to others, and thus, I am a listener.

"Not far from the busy city of Boston, I feel that that Tufts will provide me with the active and diverse environment I need to thrive." This is a misplaced modifier. Tufts, not you, is what is not far from the busy city of Boston. Also, you might want to research Tufts curriculum and add some more reasons for why you want to attend Tufts.

You've taken an interesting approach to the second essay. I'd give a specific example of a time you used your listening skills to help someone else, an anecdote that demonstrates the "richness of your life."

It's great if you saw both perspectives of an argument, but it's preferred to look at the unpopular view most. So you can write a paragraph on the most favored side, and write two or three paragraphs on the not-so-favored side.

Remember, they care about different perspective!
And what do you mean by personal language?
