Incredible. Incredible. Incredible. How he was able to connect this personal narrative to how we think of worth in society brings it to a whole new level
This was absolutely beautiful! I feel even more drive to write a genuine and sincere essay when I start applying to colleges towards the end of this year. I feel as though this gave me inspiration amidst the constant doubts and crazy looks I get from peers whenever I mention that I would like to go to Yale. Thank you. :)
Your winning essay principles will help me if I have to do expositive writing in my current career as a creative retiree. Lots of good writing points. Hats off!
Hey guys! If you found this video even mildly entertaining or helpful, it would really mean the world if you considered liking and subscribing -- the channel is very small, so everything helps! 😇
You’re welcome! Unfortunately, I’m currently swamped with paid clients this week so I don’t think I’ll be able to look at your essay until November at least
Greetings from Brazil. Thank you for all your videos, especially those related to the application process. I’m a senior at high school (stressed) and I would like to know your opinion about one thing. In my “Why Yale?” I mention a specific residential college (Silliman). So, do you think it’s fine to do that instead of just saying “residential college”? I’m asking this because I’m afraid of the admission officers seeing me as smug/arrogant since first-years are randomly assigned at the residential colleges and there’s no way to predict where you’ll end up going. I would be glad if you could help me on this.
Actually it’s all about his dad. It’s a great essay about him, but like Kevin has said in the past, colleges aren’t admitting our parents, siblings, or others we admire but us. So I’m scratching my head with this one.
Heyyy Kevin I’m so thankful for your content!! It has been really helpful♥️! I recently stumbled across your Chanel and I’m applying ED to a uni , I was wondering if you could take a look at my essay ( I know it’s super late because my deadline is on Nov 1st🥶)

This is more about his father but not him. Strange
Actually it’s all about his dad. It’s a great essay about him, but like Kevin has said in the past, colleges aren’t admitting our parents, siblings, or others we admire but us. So I’m scratching my head with this one.
Classic grandma essay it feel like
Thank you for this😊
You’re so welcome Drashti!!

Hey Archer, unfortunately I'm absolutely swamped this week and will not able to review your essay -- so so sorry and wish I could help further!
Kevin
i loved this essay, but isn’t it problematic in the sense that it makes the reader more excited in meeting his dad, as oppressed to meeting him?
Great point Arunmozhi! The idea is that by sharing about his Dad, we learn about what values Jeff has and cares about
wow
wow indeed
Kevin looking a bit different at 1:58🤔
🌝
