[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]"how my sport changed my life."[/quote] My high stats (3.98 GPA/4.53 wGPA/35 ACT, full IB) class of 22 wrote an essay like this (and his sport really did change his life), which I thought was pretty good, and he did not get into most of the selective schools he applied to (Yale, Harvard, [b]Williams (legacy,[/b] but didn't apply ED), Amherst, Duke, UVa, MIT). Obviously not getting in to any of those could just be luck of the draw, but I wonder if his essay ended up hurting him.[/quote] Gen X Eph gang [/quote]
