SAT, ACT, and Essays oh my!

<p>Alright now that I have you'r attention I need you'r help. If you got into an Ivy or any school in the top tier I need you'r opinion. I have finished writing my admission essay and I wrote it in 3rd person but not without reason. I wrote it like a book with chapters and such. Not to toot my own horn but it's pretty darn good. I've had several people read it and they've all cried their eyes out even so, I've heard from others that it is not recommended to write in the 3rd person. Should I change my whole essay? Help!! Thank you!</p>
