how i wrote "successful" essays that got me accepted into

timestamps:
00:00 - intro
1:45 - you're writing for AOs, not your hs teachers
3:55 - you are the author of your own novel (follow the structure)
5:50 - the school wants you too, not just the other way around (show, not tell)
7:36 - your essays are not your linkedin or resume
9:26 - why the "why us" is your most important essay
11:27 - outro
hi loves!!
it's officially college app season for '24s & so i wanted to finally open up about my experience with the process. this video discusses what helped me approach specifically the personal statement & supplemental essays (what i consider the strongest part of my app).
seriously, there's no answer sheet to college admissions. all i can advise is you to be vulnerable in your essays & present yourself in a way that no one else can replicate. i hope this video helped & as always, please reach out if needed. best of luck seniors, you've got this :)
xoxo,

here is someone who will never EVER leave your side, and His name is Jesus Christ! 2000+ years ago he came to earth and suffered beatings, being abandoned by His closest friends, being betrayed unto death, being spat on, and nailed to a cross. Why did He endure all of this? Well, it doesn't quite make sense until you look at yourself. God has his moral Law, the Ten Commandments, and you and I have broken God's Law. The Ten Commandments require us not to lie, steal, use God's name in vain (blasphemy), commit adultery (Which Jesus says looking at others with lust is the same as adultery), and murdering (which Jesus also says hating someone is the same as being a murderer at heart). These are only a few of the commandments, and breaking just one makes you guilty of breaking them all (James 2:10). so, have you lied before? or stolen? hated someone, looked with lust, or used God's name in vain (ex: saying "oh my ***). If so, God seeing you as a lying, thieving, blaspheming, adulterous murderer at heart. You are guilty before God of eternal death in Hell (the Bible says the wages of sin is death in Romans 6:23). And this should terrify you, for the Bible says in Hell there is weeping and gnashing of teeth, and that it is like a lake of fire that is never quenched. There will be no laughing, no partying, just eternal suffering. But back to Jesus. When He came to earth and suffered and died on that cross, though He never needed to die since He was sinless, He was paying the debt of your sins as well as mine. Then, He rose from the dead, thus conquering death and proving that all who believe on Him will likewise rise from death to life. So, i imploreeee you, homie, put your trust is Jesus Christ TODAY, and God will grant you ever lasting life. The rest of Romans 6:23 says "The wages of sin is death, but the FREE GIFT OF GOD is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." So, trust in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Believe on Him and you will be saved.
