<p>That’s so minor it could just be a printer error So I don’t think you should worry too much</p>
<p>Not a problem.</p>
<p>That will not make the difference in admission. Even if they notice.</p>
<p>You are out, period. They will never forgive you.^^^</p>
<p>Just joking.</p>
I feel so bad whenever I read that someone spent months on their essays. I could never do that
@Sighaa Made the deferral even worse, haha
Perhaps you wrote a book, that is the reason the deferral. ^^
@artloversplus Nope. My extended essay was around 750 words. By working on it for months, I mean revising it, etc., not adding content.
Don’t give up, you still have 10% chance. Then there is a waitlist…
@localdreamer15 I’ve actually found that the longer I revise an essay the more I dislike it. Out of all of applications my Stanford one was by far my FAVORITE, and I tossed it together a few hours before it was due. I spent a week analyzing/revising my Uchicago and MIT apps, but they just… sounded lifeless. Good luck on RD though
@Sighaa I understand you. When I try to revise an essay and have to read it again and again like a hundred times, it started to get boring and wordy, with no spirit like the first time I wrote it.
I had a sentence that ended without a period in my essays. In fact, that sentence was accidentally left unfinished and ungrammatical and it was also at the end of a paragraph, with the rest of the line being whitespace. In short, it was impossible not to notice it. In spite of that, I was still accepted EA. I would never do that on purpose, but I think it might’ve shown flair/character and made me seem more believable. In any case, trust the admissions office to look past your grammar. They’re looking for reasons to accept you, not reasons to deny you.
You’ll get a rejection letter with a period missing too.
Haha, just kidding :P.
