To get into UNH, my main focus was myApr 23 2009Criminal
To get into UNH, my main focus was my application essay. I chose the "topic of your choice" and "ran with it." Because I dislike writing about myself, I wrote my essay through the eyes of a profiler, the career that I want. My essay began with me being kidnapped and the detectives interviewing my friends and family to get more info about me.
Also, try to be involved in your high school and keep your grades up. Stay positive and keep away from senioritis. :)
