I must admit that it is fun to be quoted as an expert. But, of course, it is even more satisfying when the advice is taken. It is that time of year when high school seniors are (hopefully) putting the final touches on their Common App personal statements. Just the words “personal statement” engender fear in the typical student. It is precisely the personal nature of the writing that is so difficult. After all, how many of us at 17, or at any age for that matter, really take time to fully and honestly reflect on what is important to us and then, the hard part, tell a stranger? This is the essence of the personal statement. But, it is not at all insurmountable. So please consider my advice and you just may see that the personal statement is not as difficult as you first thought. https://outwittrade.com/how-to-write-a-college-application-essay/#terry
