Essay Topics

Common App Essay

Related my identity crisis to cats and how I got out of it; well-written and well-received by others

Interview Experiences
  • Rice University
  • Performance/Outcome: I couldn't speak at all; it was my first interview ever
  • Case Western Reserve University
  • Performance/Outcome: Pretty good but I can't remember much about the interview
  • Denison University
  • Performance/Outcome: She said I was a great fit for the school
Letters of Recommendation
  • Counselor

    Pretty well written but sounds a bit too professional rather than personal

  • Economics Teacher

    Same thing with the counselor

  • Biology Teacher

    Didn't send to schools that didn't require a second recommender; essentially a generic LOR template
