Not really sure how to catch the attention of my reader on these essays. I’ve read good ones that start right off the bat with their experience with the school, but I don’t really have an experience with the schools I’m applying to.
What are your guys’ thoughts on starting with a brief personal anecdote and tying it together at the end?
For 150-word essays, could a brief personal anecdote still work or should you just dive straight into the school-specific stuff? How many aspects of the school should you focus on for 150-word essays? I’m afraid I’m getting a bit list-y with these…
Thanks!
