[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IMO the holistic process dings some Asians because American values are very different from Asian values. I tried writing up a bit about my Asian student’s essays but even though I am Asian myself, I thought it could be perceived as racist. So I deleted it. I am more assimilated into American culture so can understand both cultures. All I will say is that this kid did not get into 50+ summer programs whose apps involved essays and with me telling her what to avoid, she was able to get into HYPSM. No editing — just advice. Another Asian student refused to take my advice and ended up at state school despite having impressive stats. The essays really matter if you’re Asian. [/quote] Can you share some of your essay advice here?[/quote]
