<p>there are several quotations/ prompts in amherst supplement essay…</p>
<p>i know applicants are only required to do one, but if the applicant writes more than one, does his chance of admittance increase?</p>
<p>You have no guarantee that the admissions representative(s) reading your application would be willing to read several essays when there are so many candidates to evaluate.</p>
<p>no no way. there is not a place to put the second essay and they would probably reject you for not following directions.</p>
