Supplemental Diversity Essay

Post by ivantheterbl » Sat Sep 11, 2010 11:24 am

Does anyone think writing a diversity essay on being a math major would be worthwhile? Most schools have a pretty open ended question about what unique perspectives do you bring to law school, and since being a math major is somewhat unique I didn't know if people thought it could be interesting/worthwhile to write it or should I just scrap the idea?

Scrap it, in my opinion.

Alright, I didn't know for sure and since I'm a fairly typical white dude I wouldn't have anything else for that supplemental essay. I'll prolly just stick with the personal statement and not do a supp
