UChicago Extended Essay

たぶんUCHicagoいきたさが上がるので

逆にもしかしたらUChicagoのモチベ消えるかもしれんし

全体的な方針

多分おふざけ寄りな物が多いだろうから、その中でもっとlogicalな雰囲気を出せるような感じでいきたい

多分自分はそっちの方が書きやすい

あと、身近なもの題材にするものが多そうなので、もっと抽象的な感じで行くとよさそう？

行くとよさそうというか、ほうっておくと僕はそうしがちだけど、それでよさそう

楽しそうなやつ

What if the moon were made of cheese? Or Neptune made of soap? Pick a celestial object, reimagine its material composition, and explore the implications. Feel free to explore the realms of physics, philosophy, fantasy…the sky is the limit!

In Homer’s Iliad, Helen had a “face that launched a thousand ships.” A millihelen, then, measures the beauty needed to launch one ship. The Sagan unit is used to denote any large quantity (in place of “billions and billions”). A New York Minute measures the period of time between a traffic light turning green and the cab behind you honking. Invent a new unit of measurement. How is it derived? How is it used? What are its equivalents?

理系みも含めて一番好きかも

自分らしさもありそう

空間と時間を一緒に扱う軸とか

単位を定めるってのは、計測する軸を定めるのに近い

Essay Option 6

In the spirit of adventurous inquiry (and with the encouragement of one of our current students!) choose one of our past prompts (or create a question of your own). Be original, creative, thought provoking. Draw on your best qualities as a writer, thinker, visionary, social critic, sage, citizen of the world, or future citizen of the University of Chicago; take a little risk, and have fun!

ようはOption 1~5でもこれを求めているという事なのかな

past prompts

Subway maps, evolutionary trees, Lewis diagrams. Each of these schematics tells the relationships and stories of their component parts. Reimagine a map, diagram, or chart. If your work is largely or exclusively visual, please include a cartographer's key of at least 300 words to help us best understand your creation.

あまり興味が湧かないやつ

What’s so easy about pie?

しるか

（あまりこのpromptを見ても発想が広がらない、という意）

On the other hand, maybe this prompt isn’t about pie at all. Or, if it is, perhaps you don’t think there’s anything easy about pie. This prompt can be interpreted in a hundred different ways. The extent to which you can push this open-ended question is virtually limitless. Admissions is looking to see how you think, process, and approach. So, flex your imaginative muscles and take the metaphor off a cliff (in a good way)

"There is no such thing as a new idea" - Mark Twain. Are any pieces of art, literature, philosophy, or technology truly original, or just a different combination of old ideas? Pick something, anything (besides yourself), and explain why it is, or is not, original.
