<p>So... I've already finished my common app but after revised and reread it several times I found that there's no specific conclusion part in my essay. I somehow feel that the experience I showed in my essay is enough to tell the AO what kind of person I am.
The question is, should I add some in-depth thoughts or conclusion to my essay? (Like "looking back at this event, I realized.....") Is that really necessary? ('cause most strong essay samples I read have a 80-100 words conclusion)</p>
<p>It’s not at all unusual to have no conclusion. These essays are often more like stories, not like a school paper. It’s generally not necessary to spell out the meaning or lesson learned.</p>
<p>Thanks @niceday! It’s just I read so many samples and not a single one of them write about one specific experience and there are a LOT of conclusions and stuff.</p>
