Hello! For the past several months I’ve been working on my Common App essay. Recently, (an hour ago) someone told me that my essay was confusing, and now I am conflicted. Should I rewrite my essay knowing I have 70 hours to do so, or can it be salvaged. Could someone please read over my essay? I would like brutal and honest comments! Thank you!!
Who is that “someone”?? A college advisor? (At 1:43 am on a Sunday night?) Your English teacher? Or another high school senior?
At this point, I would go with the essay you’ve worked on for several months. Own it. It’s yours and represents who you are.
