Read commonapp essay for HYP, other ivies

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm kind of confused about the college essay. I have "50 Application Essays That Got Into Harvard" and a lot of the essays in that book are just very personal essays about growth/maturing etc. They don't really trumpet their own achievements. However, some of my older friends have said that the essay HAS to somehow show your achievements/awards. </p>

<p>So if anyone would like to read my essay that is not a 2010er, that would be great and I will PM it over. I am applying to Yale EA and other ivies and top tier schools.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot!</p>

<p>I’m in college so I’ll give it a read and critique it if you’d like =)</p>

<p>ok thanks! I’ll pm it over.</p>

<p>Anyone else want to give it a shot? Much appreciated.</p>

<p>PM it to me and ill do my best to give you some advice!</p>

<p>PM me. I’m an '08 kid and pretty good with constructive criticism.</p>

<p>You can send it to me too if you want a journalism major to read it</p>
