Hi. So I’ve been reading over the Common App essays for over a month now, and I STILL don’t know what to write about or how to get started.
If anyone has their started/finished, could you please PM it to me. I really need an example to see what I should be doing. If you don’t trust me, I can send you my essay after I am finished to make sure that I didn’t copy it.
Please Help
You probably won’t get many people willing to send a brand new user their essay, but you could always Google search examples of essays for each prompt.
http://www.■■■■■■■■■■■■■/ is a good site for samples and brainstorming ideas, IMO. And TheOmniscient posted some useful tips, starting with http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-essays/1696127-ultimate-guide-to-crafting-differentiated-powerful-essays-part-1-finding-the-perfect-topic.html#latest (You could always click on his username and see his threads for the others).
Thanks for the info!
