IN YOUR OWN VOICE. The title says it all. This is the book that shows students how to write essays that showcase what is unique about them and what they have to offer to the colleges of their choice.IN YOUR OWN VOICE has been hailed as a ground-breaking text—one that offers the kind of help that parents pay large sums to experts for. As Les Perelman, former member of the MIT Committee on Undergraduate Admissions and former Director of the MIT writing program has said, “There are many books offering high school students advice on writing college admissions essays, but IN YOUR OWN VOICE is the first book that actually teaches students how to write an effective essay.”The authors have worked with college-bound students for more than twenty years. Our students have been welcomed into such large, top-ranked institutions as Columbia, Brown, the University of North Carolina, and the University of Virginia, as well as into prestigious small colleges like Wesleyan, Oberlin, Sarah Lawrence, St. John’s, and Colorado College. Admissions officers remember our students’ essays and have told them so. Every student we have worked with has gotten into the college of his or her choice.IN YOUR OWN VOICE lays out the various techniques our students used in working through their drafts, from their first efforts to decide on a topic to their final polished submissions. Following alongside them, users of the book practice the same techniques. When they finish, they have not only learned how to write successful essays—they have acquired a set of valuable writing skills, skills they will take with them into college.
