Riassunto

Seniors in high school start feeling stressed at the mere thought of writing the college application essay. They well know the role this crucial document plays in getting into their university of choice. What they may not know is that there is a right way and a wrong way to writing the essay.
?I?ve noticed some recurrent bad habits that have hurt otherwise good essays and I have added mention of them throughout the book,? says Michael James Mason, author of How to Write a Winning College Application Essay. ?A student doesn?t have to be a star scholar or a superhero to write a great application essay. They just have to show on paper that they know some things about themselves and that life has meaning and perspective.?In How to Write a Winning College Application Essay, Mason teaches students how to put their best image on paper while letting the essay speak from their heart about what life means to them. Since the publication of the first two editions of his practical manual, thousands of students across the nation have used his techniques in the process of writing their personal statements for college and graduate school.
?Thousands of good students have been accepted into colleges of their choice because their essays were honest, moving and sensitive. Their essays revealed their values, insights and spirit,? says Mason.About the Author
