I’m sure by now many in the application process have submitted graded writing samples for Andover, Deerfield, Loomis, etc. but does anyone actually know how Adcomms use these materials. Are they used as a comparison to your current essays or are they to look at the difficulty of your course work, etc. Any ideas?
I still haven’t submitted it actually. I plan on doing so in the coming days.
From what I’ve read, it’s for them to see how well you can write.
They want to get s sense of how easy or hard it is to get an “A” or “B” at your school… They already have other writing samples from the SSAT and application essays.
