Essay day!
Back to college. I didn't realize how completely in love I am with UChicago. I know I'm going to get deferred from Harvard in a few days (no surprise there), so I'm working on my RD apps. But doing more research has made me realize that UChicago is the perfect school for me. I talked to my counselor about it and she said that I would fit in there. I read about the EDII program in class today, but I need to do more research about financial aid. But according to their net price calculator, its really affordable for me!
We'll see what happens.

I feel confident about my chances because I do have a 35 ACT but of course I'm still nervous.

I want to discuss our development process, the challenges we faced when coming up with ideas and illustrating, and the message/impact we want our book to have on the kids reading it. These are also the ideas I hope to hit in the presentation.
