On one of my supplemental essays, I misused the word “aspires” by accident. I also accidentally used a comma instead of a period and spelled the word “arctic” as “artic”
How will this affect me?
barely, you’ll be fine
This is why you should always ask someone to look over an essay before submissions. It really depends on the school. The comma, probsbly not a problem. The two words, possibly a problem. Too late anyway.
No use crying over spilled milk. IMHO, I don’t think those two minor errors will make or break your app.
I had three people read it over. They all missed it too. Very funny but sad at the same time.
