<p>Hi Everyone! </p>
<p>First of all thank you to all the wonderful people on this board who helped me with my last query. It really helped me make a final decision. </p>
<p>Now, down to business. I'm in the middle of drafting a personal essay for the Common Application. We had an assignment for school to write one, but the word limit was 600-750. In other words, way too long for the Common Ap. So I've been reading and rereading, and I'm having a lot of issues distancing myself away from my work to determine what's really important in the piece, or what works and what doesn't (ack I have attachment issues). I am setting up a meeting with both my current Lit. Teacher and my Guidance Counselor, but any help I can get with this essay would be greatly appreciated! :) </p>
<p>Please let me know if you can help. Thank you all so much!</p>
