<p>Essay:
I think my essays were pretty good. I let someone read my Common App one and she was raving about it. I tried very hard to show my passion for Wellesley in my supplement... I took it from the angle of that I want to be more poised/eloquent and Wellesley will help me find myself and be an adult.</p>
