[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] 2. This year, the four VT-specific questions on the Common App were very important, [b]even more so than the essay. [/b]The faculty member said they were specifically looking for an answer the indicated a kid that knows when to look for help. They wanted students who recognized when they needed assistance (academically or mentally) and then reached out for help. I did not read my child's answers to the questions, so I'm not sure how he hit this note, but he did get accepted EA with less than a 4.0 and a respectable, but not amazing, SAT score. [/quote] It's not just that they are more important than the CA essay. They don't look at the CA essay at all.[/quote]
