(100 words)On learning that our spherical-planet floats on nothingness, I turned towards the stars for quenching the curiosity which my ordinary-sized skull couldn't contain. Why do we exist? Are there other intelligent organisms? Are we 'intelligent'? Buried underneath such hefty one-liners, I witnessed the edge of physics seamlessly interpenetrating periphery of philosophy.My precise intellectual-interests reoriented frequently throughout this odyssey. From wanting to step on mars to dreaming about unifying General-Relativity with Standard-Model, one sleep-stealing paradox remained a constant though- Is space-research ethical in a society where starvation exists?By garnering Yale's education, I hope to resolve this internal dilemma and develop a cohesive dynamic between physical-sciences and social-welfare.
ch15hann 6 / 11 3 Dec 21, 2018 #2I love how visual you are with your essay. It is very beautifully written. However, I would incorporate why Yale sooner, so it should be answering the question 50% and then why yale 50%. right now, you have 85% answering question and why yale 15%. however overall, good job. :)
OP kartikt 6 / 12 Dec 22, 2018 #3Thank you soo much. I didn't include much of Why Yale because Yale's application has an entirely seperate essay which deals with this particular questions. Thanks again
