<p>“The most impactful part was the professor spent the time to answer my questions about the biology program.” –> “The most influential part was when the professor spent the time to answer my questions about the biology program.”</p>
<p>Mispelled Frederick Douglass (“Frederick Douglas”).</p>
<p>One instance of bad parallelism and a few passive voice mistakes.</p>

<p>Impactful is a word.</p>
<p>I accidentally wrote that Jane Austen wrote Bleak House (Charles Dickens) in my app and got in. </p>
<p>I think you’re good.</p>
<p>Well just hope it’ll go unnoticed, the mistakes were miniscule</p>
<p>and impactful is not a word according to spell check haha</p>
<p>Haha. Whew! Thanks everyone! I can relax a bit now :)</p>
