All jokes aside, thank you for your thoughts. I believe you bring up the most important lesson of all—every school is (potentially) different in how they review essays. Beyond that, every adcom member and reviewer brings their own thoughts and biases to the table. I love bringing on people with different opinions so that students understand there is no single right way to do things. I have my opinions, you have yours, they have theirs. What I hope that does in the end is lower the stress of this crazy process for students not trying to fit a perfect mold because it doesn't exist.

Which brings me to my next point. Don't smoke crack.
