Interviews with Deans of Admission offer valuable information on what colleges are really looking for in an admission essay. Often, it's not what you think. Be unique and bright - but also have a great story that will make you memorable. If the Dean is still thinking about your personal statement two days later, it achieved its purpose.
Today's multiple college applications involve writing more than just one long essay. The myriad required paragraphs and supplemental statements demand skill, finesse, tenacity, and patience.
Peterson's Writing Successful College Applications reminds the reader that what defines the application are the little details like:
biographical information
GPA and transcript
standardized tests
strong letters of recommendation
extracurricular and volunteer activities on a resume
A writing project or art or music portfolio add to the memorability factor, if the student has talent or writing skills to showcase.
The advice about writing an essay that only this student could write is excellent. Be unique and tell your own story. But remember - 'It's more than just the essay.'

Автор: Muchnick Irvin Название: Chris & Nancy: The True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide and Pro Wrestling`s Cocktail of Death, the Ultimate Historical Edition ISBN: 1770415629 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781770415621 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 23220.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Muchnick lays bare the murder-suicide of Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy, and their seven-year-old son, Daniel. The Benoit murder-suicide in 2007 was one of the most shocking stories of that year in any realm, and a seminal event in the history of wrestling. Featured on episode SE7ENTEEN of the My Favorite Murder Podcast "Irvin Muchnick is hell-bent on discovering the essence of the cover-ups, the nuts and bolts of the investigations..."-- Wrestling Observer "The Ultimate Historical Edition" extends the 2009 true crime account by connecting it to it to someone who was then a bit player in the wrestling world: Donald Trump. A new introduction reflects on Trump's business ties to WWE's McMahon family, how wrestling "attitude" came to define the populist, demagogic Trump presidency, and their similar scandal management playbooks. Muchnick -- the author of Wrestling Babylon and a co-author of Benoit: Wrestling with the Horror That Destroyed a Family and Crippled a Sport --drilled down deep into public records and interviewed dozens of witnesses, inside and outside wrestling, to put together the authoritative account of the events of the gruesome June 2007 weekend in Fayette County, Georgia, during which World Wrestling Entertainment superstar Chris Benoit murdered his wife Nancy and their seven-year-old son Daniel, before proceeding to kill himself. But this book goes beyond the crime itself to answer some of the most important questions behind it. The biography of Benoit, a wrestler's wrestler, makes it clear that his tragedy was a microcosm of the culture of drugs and death behind the scenes of one of North America's most popular brand of sports entertainment. The author probes the story of the massive supplies of steroids and human growth hormone found in his home -- all prescribed by a "doctor to the stars" who got indicted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, and all dismissed by a WWE "wellness policy" that promoted everything except its talent's wellness. The Benoit case led to unprecedented scrutiny of wrestling's overall health and safety standards, by Congressional investigators and others, and this book is the primary source of what they found and what they should continue to look for.
