[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former admissions reader here. AN has to paint a broad stroke to be able to coach so many kids at once. The key to success there is to adapt the advice to your kid. They edit essays and she needs to have parameters so that the essays can stand out. That’s their biz model. But you can easily adapt the advice into what works for you. My kid wrote about an activity that was very clear in his app but showed a completely different perspective and deep knowledge of it when he experienced something in a very specific moment. It was a great essay. And while it didn’t pass Sara’s general “rules” I can almost guarantee she would have loved it. The number of triumph over injury or concussion in sports essays I read was a snooze fest and a real missed opportunity. So the advice is sound, but adapt it to you and write something meaningful.
