<p>Because the Pton server is down, my only option is the common app. But do the admissions officers secretly discriminate the common app applicants? Maybe because that would show a lack to dedication? Please answer asap!!</p>
<p>I don't think it matters. As if you actually dump the common essay and write a bunch of Pton-specific ones. Besides, there's no more dedication involved than copying and pasting from commonapp.</p>
<p>At the info session I went to the officer EMPHASIZED that it didn't matter. She said that when she receives the application, she can't tell which application it was written on.</p>
<p>well, the essay topics are different.so they probably can tell the difference but I dont think it really matters. =)</p>
