<p>What are some of the most common mistakes made on the common application.</p>
<p>There was an article about this published recently. It said that the most common mistakes included using the wrong school name in the “why do you want to go to X college?” and, in some cases, the parents were so involved in the application process that they signed their names to the application…amazing.</p>
<p>^hahaha
actually in one of my essays i noticed that, but i fixed it
and i edited my essays about fifty more times afterwards, so i know i didn’t make that
i read that students will sometimes enter that they were born in the current year
i think the biggest, however, is missing the deadline</p>
<p>omg. i just did that mistake about putting the wrong school name. One of my teachers reccomendations put a particular schools name on his reccomendation and already submitted to one of my past applications i submitted a while ago. and i decided i wanted to one more school and what i didn’t know was that if i used him again on the commonapp. even by using a replicate version and he has already submitted his recc. its just gonna automatically send the previous one. now i gotta email the school and somehow tell them what happened and then on jan.5 i gotta go to my teacher and get it fixed. ugh.</p>
