[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Long story short, she ended up being accepted in all Poolesville and RMIB programs. She was at 99th percentile with reading and math at that time. No competitions, no major engagements. What I think has made a difference is her essay as her friends did not had the same results with similar stacks." Could you share how her essay was different from her friends who didn't have the same results for acceptance? [/quote] The comparison is based on my child conversations with her friends who did not got in, but had the same scores. The essay is the only logical difference. My child essay focused on her experiences and personality and why magnet was for her. She is also a talented writer. It appears that her friends essays focused on listing achievements, while forgetting the individual person behind those achievements. I think this would be the same for any college essays. [/quote]
