[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are going through it but I truly wonder whether these essays are really important. Do the admissions officers ever include or exclude an applicant based on the essay. Or do they make us do these essays to weed out those who really want it versus those who are just casually looking. [/quote] At our school it was very clear they cared a lot about fit and had read the parent essays before our parent interview. Things I had written came up.[/quote] That's nice and thoughtful! At least your time was worth it. In our case, it was clear they had not read them and I was left wondering why we had wasted our time on multiple revisions. (It's our first choice so I was very intense about it.) Maybe other interviews will go differently... [/quote]
