Common Application Essay

<p>Hi all, I just glanced over the Common Apps for Stanford and I have a quick question. Is the Personal Essay the "Mother-of-all-Essays" or are the Supplements the more important ones. I understand both are important but I was just curious which one weighs more? Sorry I'm still new to this O.O</p>

<p>From my understanding, I’d say the Personal Essay has more weight, however both are highly considered in the application. You should post this in the Stanford 2014 forum to get more responses. :D</p>
