The Emerson Supplement has this question: As you know, the academic programs at Emerson College are focused on communication and the arts. Please tell us what influenced you to select your first choice major and, if applicable, your second choice major. (100-200 words) Not sure if this essay is any good.

If high school teaches teens anything, it is that image is everything. High school is a time when we accept others opinions and ridicule as law, and allow it to rule us. Kids spend hours of their precious time sculpting their Facebook page to perfection. What we hear on Facebook or Twitter is not questioned, and can ruin a person's reputation in a second. Instagram runs peoples fashion sense, and when the same pair of boots pop up on a feed more than once, suddenly everyone has to have them. We do all this and more, just to be kept from being swept aside.

Social media opened my eyes to a world where information is traded instantly and can influence an opinion without a moment's notice. After four years of keeping my head above water in the tropical storm we call high school I realized that everything that all this is a type of job in the corporate world. The idea that a commercial before a Youtube video, or an ad on the side of Facebook can sway a person's opinion is fascinating to me. Marketing and public relations is a growing field, it adapts and changes with the time just as I learned to in high school.

You make a good point, but it almost seems as if you're saying the impact of Facebook and Twitter is bad. You say things like "ridicule" and mention laws that "rule us," but then you say that you're fascinated how ads can sway people's opinion.

I think you should close this gap and clarify your stance on the media

Same as above.
