College Essay Essentials: A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing a Successful College Admission Essay (2nd Edition)
28
When it comes to writing the college admissions essay, the options can seem endless and overwhelming. But what if I told you that you had only four options, just four paths for your college essay? And furthermore, that you could choose a path by answering two questions? Would that make things easier?
Answer these two questions:
1. Have you been through significant challenges in your life?
2.Do you know what you want to be when you grow up?
Your answers lead you to one of four easy-to-follow essay paths and, ultimately, to a completely original and unforgettably compelling personal essay in College Essay Essentials, a new approach to the college essay that is groundbreaking in its simplicity. Expert author Ethan Sawyer (aka The College Essay Guy) saves you time and stress by sticking to the basics and guiding you every step of the way, from brainstorming to finished draft to acceptance letter.
