Amateur hour is over. To the intelligent reader, grammar mistakes are no joke on a college essay. It may not be a final death knell but will certainly raise an eyebrow.

well at least the admit comms can assume with those grammatical mistakes that she wrote the essay herself. Bonus points there.
Otherwise how will they know who wrote it?
I imagine they are tired of high school kids sounding like professional writers or reading essays that sound like something Ph.D.'s wrote.
Bonus points? The adcoms will assume she can't write. Sorry but there are no brownie points for this.

If that happens, those who have the gold make the rules. In addition to us, will you be reaching out to Harvard to vigorously let them know how disenchanted you are at this behavior?

Here's the essay. I'll bet a few readers here have no clue who are Pavlov's dogs which demonstrates the student was well read. Humorous essay.

In addition to the essay, reading 100 books in the last year MAY have had a lot to do with her acceptance.

You don't like smart people, do you? It's obvious no matter how you try and spin it. To each his own, I guess.

I like smart people. Is there any way to verify she read 100 books? I will bet now that many people claim this on their apps next year since it worked so well for her.
