    #21496836 - 04/03/15 03:08 PM (9 years, 1 month ago)

So I'm 22 and am finishing up the military in a year so I'm thinking of college and shit..

Any pointers on writing a college application letter?

Studies have shown that people with higher IQs are more likely to take drugs :smile:.

I think a drug forum is a good place to ask. Besides ive seen the most random shit here and this isnt the only place I'm asking.

Input from different places is good.

Is it even required? It might be one of those things where 'if you were in the military an application letter is optional.'

If it is required don't sweat it. As long as you didn't shit the bed in high school, if you're applying to a state school, you'll probably get in. Just talk about how the military taught you discipline (say how you will apply that to your studies) and how it also gave you 4 years to think about what subject you would really want to pursue. Then say how the school you're applying for is the type of school that is perfect for what you want to study. BS is all these guys want.

If it's for a top university, then idk..

Just incorporate as much emotion as you can into the paper. I've realized that the secret to writing good papers is writing something people can feel. Things that read like a paper are boring like a paper.

Listen to some good music.

I spent several days mulling over both my college and grad school admissions essays prior to starting to write them.  In the end, I came up with pretty much nothing and just got super blazed and banged them out in like a couple hours.  Unless you have some really compelling story of struggle or it is atrociously bad, your essay will be irrelevant to your admission prospects.  I bet a lot of schools don't even read them, and if they do, it almost certainly will not be all the way through.
