PERSONAL ESSAYS? i am a MASTER apparently#these kids r sooooo proud of their essays and i look and it’s like ‘babes why r u showing me this. isnt it just a draft. huh’#i wish i could afford one of those fancy schools with no merit aid 😭😭 goin to a good school for mega cheap but i feel like i would have#gotten into some ivies if i’d been able to try. at least on the basis of writing.#affirmative action isn’t keeping you from the ivies babe it’s your horrid essay topic & style & grammar & concision & approach. lol#sorry for being conceited or whatever but also if u’d just read this girl’s essay u would be too
