regarding the Yale 250
If I write on an academic subjects (such as a research that I did), would I need to provide citations? If so, how would I cite stuff without having in-text citations to take up 50 words?

They already know that you are smart; the Yale 250 probably wants to see if you can express your thoughts clearly in a concise manner. Good lawyers need to be able to relate to all types of people--not just to professors & judges.

What would you need to cite? Your essay should explain the concepts of your research, not state the exact experimental results that you achieved.icpb wrote:If I write on an academic subjects (such as a research that I did), would I need to provide citations?

Re: regarding the Yale 250
My research had two parts: a theoretical part and a case study part. The theoretical part was partly built upon other researchers’ work.

Write it like a popular science snippet (like something you would find in Popular Science or Discover). Don't worry about the citations. [1]

I don't think yale wants to know you can do research

I would think talk about why you passionate about the research topic
