<p>Could a bad essay in itself deny you from admissions?</p>
<p>depends on what you mean by ‘bad’. if it consists of 500 identical four-letter-words, then yes, you have probably no chance at all.
if bad meaning on a technical level, then it might hurt you, but will not guarantee you an outright red card.</p>
<p>“A great essay could heal the sick but couldn’t raise the dead.”</p>
<p>MzLover, i think i saw that phrase somewhere before…i think it’s a white book…</p>
<p>the princeton review? lol</p>
<p>essays are very important. everyone will basically look the same w/ test scores… the only things that will separate you from everyone else are your essays, teacher recs, and your ECs. spend as much time on your essays as you can.</p>
