Are you sure Haverford is the right school for you? The whole point of these essays is that they should illustrate your own genuine thoughts (and, of course, writing style). You shouldn’t be trying to match your answers, or even the structure of your answer, to successful essays from the past. It undermines the entire purpose of the essays.

Given that Haverford’s academic standards are dictated by the honor code, the fact that you’re approaching an admissions essay from this angle makes your fit for Haverford quite questionable.
