[quote=Anonymous]I agree that lots of high stats kids hate writing application essays. College application essays are not like normal essays. They are about yourself. There are many minefields as well. Kids are told never to mention anxiety or mental health so writing about how they overcame their post pandemic anxiety is a red flag. Many kids are not comfortable using something deeply personal like the death of a loved one or friend in their essays even though I’m sure AOs would find that juicy and more interesting. I wish the essay really was just a prompt to show their writing style.[/quote]
