<p>What are they looking for … a different side from you college essay ?
Content, writing style, etc</p>
<p>Only an admissions rep really knows the answer to that and many questions posted on this board. </p>
<p>FYI- My engineering son hates to write. They wanted 200 words, he gave them 200 words. Not one more. None of his essays were great (so interesting) but that is him. He was accepted into 15 of 15 schools he applied to. Guess they all liked something about him.</p>
