[quote=Anonymous]A couple of books that I love for this age group: Boy 21 by Matthew Quick and All My Rage by Sabaa Tahir. OP, I would encourage him to talk to his friends and see if any of them are working with an essay coach. Or maybe someone has a parent who is an editor or an English teacher and would be willing to help him. Otherwise, I would encourage him to start early and not overthink things. The main Common App essay is only 650 words. That's not bad at all. If he's applying to highly selective schools, he'll have extra essays, but many colleges just require the main Common App essay.[/quote]
