[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CommonApp essay centered around LGBTQ+ identity. Admitted to an Ivy, and the AO wrote a very nice handwritten message at the bottom of the printed acceptance letter that was mailed. My suggestion is to just write essays that speak authentically to who your child's identity is. It might be about sexuality, race, religion, culture, etc, but it can literally be whatever. Authenticity trumps (for lack of a better word) all else.[/quote] Your reply sounds like you assume the parents write the students essays. Mine wrote their own (submitted it and was done without telling me) and did well. [/quote]
