@GatorDad305 I just reread your post and it made me think. She didn’t write an essay that talks about her extracurriculars or achievements at all. It’s more focused on a particular interest she developed over the years and how that shaped her as a person. Now I’m second guessing… does UF like more of the first type? eesh… I can’t wait til her app is in. For four years she has focused on this school, she will be crushed if she doesn’t get in. Family and friends here in NJ don’t get how hard (and holistic!) it actually is to get in to UF and they are all like “pshh! Of course she will get in!” Which totally annoys both of us because we know the deal, and there are no shoo-ins!
