[quote=Anonymous]I would not waste his actual essay highlighting the one significant weakness in his application. There is a space at the end of the common app to explain special circumstances. If he has a true and compelling reason that he got a D (and that is not clear to me), then he could write a few sentences explaining. But it should be short. And they will factor those circumstances in or not. But for right now just help him (and you) put this in perspective. Like you said, lessons learned along the way. He is still a great kid and will have multiple options for attending a strong college.[/quote]
