<p>Maddie1995: I wrote the common app essay about the place where you are most content, and I chose my home. My family is very close and so our house is always a comforting place. It talks about the sounds, smells and spirit of home. My W&M supplement was about how i seem very ordinary but the combination of those things makes me extraordinary. I took statistics like how many families have three kids and calculated “what are the odds of being me?” It also talked about my quirks, particularly being born on leap year. I really liked both of them and they were extremely honest. They just said who I am and I had some funny moments too. What were your’s about?</p>
