I cannot say much from a schoolās perspective as I am clearly not an AO. But I can give you critique as a reader!
It was clean and concise, but it would have been more interesting if you focused less on what your schoolās curriculum is, and instead stressed out what you have been doing to pursue your passion of learning, such as helping your brother. Personally, I guess Iām more into showing, not telling. Overall it was really good, much better than what I can write! :)</p>
<p>Thanks @waiting4march10! I do agree with you, but I guess I just didnāt know how to write all of that in 400 words.</p>
<p>@needtoboard i liked it 
@waiting5march10 daawwww thaaankss </p>
<p>and btw how does this thing workā¦ do we erase the essays?</p>
<p>You have an hour after you post anything to āeditā the post</p>
<p>Okayā¦ im gonna post it and delete it in an hour</p>
<p>its goneā¦ </p>
<p>Lovely essays guys! I missed some of the ones earlier, I wish you had left them up :(</p>
<p>@exeterbunny i just dont knowā¦ i dont really like the prospect of leaving my essays in here for likeā¦ always
should i post my groton essay too 2morrow? since i was acceptedā¦</p>
<p>My essays tell a lot about meā¦ a lot of identifying things.</p>
<p>BUMP!!! For new prospective applicants who need inspiration for their essays (like me).</p>
<p>bump bump bump for everyone trying to write essays. These are really helpful.</p>
<p>Thanks for bumping. I actually forgot about thisā¦ This will be a great help for inspiration!</p>
<p>I just read all of the essays in this thread, and I just realized that one of my essays is quite similar to one of the essays in the threadā¦ and itās for the same school and itās the same prompt. Should I worry about this?</p>
<p>You donāt have to worry about it. As long as you have an anecdote that is near identical to someone elseās or an extremely unique theme that someone else used(emphasis on unique), you wonāt have to worry about being accused of plagiarism. </p>
<p>Decided to wait till M10 until posting. Out of curiosity, is anyone still here?</p>
