I wrote about an experience at Boston Children's Hospital in which I interacted with a patient in the NICU that had no family and was spanish speaking yet being spoken to in spanish. I told the child stories in spanish and watched as they transformed with heart rate returning to stability. The child became more calm and stopped crying showing me the need for personalized care in the health care system.

Talked about how the specifics of the school applied to my academic interests.

Used my rainboots as a metaphor for many life experiences and my love of nature and exploration.

Primary essay allowed me to show career interest, community involvement and moral values, while my supplemental essays helped to direct interest of specific schools as well as show other interests I have.
