<p>Hey guys,
I'm really desperate in writing my common app essay cuz I'm applying early, and I decided to apply early just last weekend....
I actually finished the essay over the summer, but now, I don't like it anymore, and I think I made a big mistake by writing about a mundane topic...</p>
<p>So, I've been trying to make revisions/start new topic but my SAT tutor, who revised my common app essay before, suggested that I should be more straightforward in my essay.</p>
<p>She thinks that I don't get the message across.
But, I wanted my essay to be somewhat creative, and throughout the essay somehow portray what kind of person I am...isn't that what the common app is suppose to be like?</p>
<p>I feel like her revisions are ignoring my style of writing, which is very descriptive and more novel-like, and I feel like her revisions are more like "tell" not "show"....</p>
<p>I'm really confused...
I'm not sure if I'm right or if she's right....
can someone help me please?
perhaps read over my essay and give me comments on it?</p>
