91

<p>I would suggest to the 2011 applicants to not post any essays until after decisions are released.</p>

92

<p>When decision letters come I am posting my SPS essay. Even though it was the hardest, I don’t think I can out do it later. I wrote about how I define success. What did everyone else write about for SPS?</p>

93

<p>I wrote about what I would do if I had a billion dollars to donate to science and technology.</p>

94

<p>I wrote about a time I stumbled in life</p>

95

<p>whats the name of the Harvard book with all the essays in it?</p>

96

<p>@072697,
I saw that in a bathroom at my friends house! His older brother applied to ivy league schools last year and never cleaned that stuff out. I even saw his book on possible college major by the Princeton Review. I think’s the title of the Harvard book is “50 essays of successful Harvard applicants” however I am not sure.</p>

97

<p>ugh since i’m from jersey, i’m only applying to peddie and lawrenceville and now i feel ■■■■■■■■.</p>

98

<p>i wrote about the most amazing nerd camp in the world, cty and how it changed my life for the better and influenced my decision to go to boarding school</p>

99

<p>BUMP
I’m reading the essays and I think I did all of mine the wrong sort of format. great.</p>

100

<p>^ what do you mean? there’s no set ‘format’, is there? i mean, andover even allows a drawing… (or was it exeter?) i don’t think they’re necessarily looking for 5 paragraphs, intro, arguments, conclusions. as long as it’s well-written i think it’ll be fine</p>

<p>:( i thought my groton essay was great until i asked for feedback. then it got torn to shreds, hmm</p>
