<p>In my short answer that has been sent to EIGHT schools (including Williams, Hopkins, and Harvard) I wrote "a list a variables" instead of, obviously, "a list of variables." I proofed my application endlessly and still missed this, and my guidance counselor did as well. I made an alternate version for Brown and Cornell.</p>
<p>What now? Ignore it? Revise it and sent it to my reach schools? Cry?</p>
<p>No big deal, they probably won’t even notice. Definitely don’t revise…</p>
<p>ok thank you! i’m a little wound up about this.</p>
<p>dude, i had to go over this typo about 3 times to realize what mistake you had made, and you’ve already highlighted it!/…there’s no way an adcom who’ll read thousands of apps will notice it…</p>
<p>RELAX!</p>
<p>haha thanks!</p>
<p>damn khans right. i couldnt find it either for many , many tries. i dont think an adcom who has to read uber numbers of essays would catch it.</p>
