THE JOURNAL OF COLLEGE ADMISSIONS
Standing out from the crowd on college applications is vital. That is why the personal essay is so important. From the thousands submitted each year, the essays in this book were named the best by admissions officers at the naton's top colleges. Some of the pieces are sad, some are serious, some are off-beat, but every essay gives a special insight into the student's personality--an insight that grades and test scores don't reveal.
