Thanks for your responses! It was a Literature professor, her intent on the app was pre-med. That said, she is an amazing writer, so essays are her favorite part of college apps. Before she submitted her app her counselor told her that her essay would have to be an “outside of the box” type essay. He said she nailed it. I have never even read the essay as I wanted the submission to be organic - meaning that I didn’t want my meddling to interfere with her creativity (if that makes any sense). She has responded to the professor.
I am cautiously optimistic, March seems like a long way off for an answer
