[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS is a pretty typical white UMC suburban boy, wrote his essay about his job at a country club... it was a mundane setting but it was all about introspection and gaining an understand of the world around you. And, though i know you all say high school kids can't write, it was extremely well written, both moving and funny. I have no idea if the admissions counselor liked it, but he got into his ED school so it certainly didn't hinder him. [/quote] +1 My DD, typical MC suburban girl, humorously wrote about her peculiar background. I think most of teenagers are natural storytellers. She first wrote it as she was texting a funny situation to her friends group chat. Gradually, the "texts" evolved into a smart and original story. [/quote] For the love of god, don't do this without running it by a professional.[/quote]
