essay number 1342821113

Describe a personal experience which resulted in a substantial moral or ethical dilemma. What was the outcome? We are reluctant to accept assertions that you have never encountered such a situation. Please do not address cheating in an academic setting.


Dear Admissions Committee,

This will truly be a difficult essay to respond to. What do you do when a person's moral compass is skewed? More and more, I feel as though the line between what is right and what is wrong is blurred for me. Things that seem so wrong before, I no longer think it's wrong. Things that seem so right before, I no longer revere/honor/obey. I can honestly say that I can not think of a single SUBSTANTIAL moral or ethical dilemma that I have faced in recent years. They would be considered a dilemma or a predicament only if there is a moral struggle. if not, wherein lies the dilemma? wherein lies the hair pulling, the gnawing of teeth, the sleepless nights used to ponder how to dig oneself out of this hellhole?

Nah...I sleep quite well at night, every night....the only thing that's keeping me up now is pondering how best to answer this retarded question.

Sincerely,
M
