[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Write a decent essay that reads like it was written by a 17 year old. No essay is going to overcome a weak GPA or test scores. But an essay that either has bad grammar/spelling, is hard to follow the train of thought, or is over polished can be used as a reason to reject.[/quote] Shoot, I guess my child who writes first drafts better than most final drafts done by well educated adults (and likely the vast majority of Admissions people) will be rejected because they are “too good” at writing. Geez. No one can win these days! [/quote]
