Analyzing UChicago Essay Prompts 2020-2021!! | itschloetan

What’s up tanners!
In this video I give you my thoughts on the new 2020-2021 UChicago uncommon / extended essay prompts! I share my first impressions, some brainstorm ideas (hopefully some creative ones), and my general preferences for uchicago essays!

Of course as always, UChicago allows you to pick any past prompt or even create your own prompt to write about: If there is a specific prompt you’d like to see me address (or if you have your own prompt written), comment it down below and I can make a follow-up video! :)

📌 T I M E S T A M P S
- Disclaimer 0:20
- 0:40 “Who does Sally sell her seashells to? How much wood can a woodchuck really chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? Pick a favorite tongue twister (either originally in English or translated from another language) and consider a resolution to its conundrum using the method of your choice. Math, philosophy, linguistics... it's all up to you (or your woodchuck).”
- 3:45 “What can actually be divided by zero?”
- 5:32 “The seven liberal arts in antiquity consisted of the Quadrivium — astronomy, mathematics, geometry, and music — and the Trivium — rhetoric, grammar, and logic. Describe your own take on the Quadrivium or the Trivium. What do you think is essential for everyone to know?”
- 7:50 “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.”
- 11:30 “‘Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?’ - Eleanor Roosevelt. Misattribute a famous quote and explore the implications of doing so.“
- 13:30 “Engineer George de Mestral got frustrated with burrs stuck to his dog’s fur and applied the same mechanic to create Velcro. Scientist Percy Lebaron Spencer found a melted chocolate bar in his magnetron lab and discovered microwave cooking. Dye-works owner Jean Baptiste Jolly found his tablecloth clean after a kerosene lamp was knocked over on it, consequently shaping the future of dry cleaning. Describe a creative or interesting solution, and then find the problem that it solves.”

‼️BLACK LIVES MATTER, even though the protests seem to be no longer a "hot topic" and media coverage is decreasing. The problem is NOT solved, our attention span has simply lapsed.
I try not to talk politics on this channel (follow my ig if you want my thoughts) -- but this is beyond "political". This is a legitimate hazard and disaster for society.
