How to make a great college
app essay
created by Essay-Academy.com
• This presentation provides advice on
how to make a great college app
essay.
• One of the best techniques for
composing a great essay is to balance
your content between abstraction and
specific information.
• This way you can make your content
dynamic and the same time engaging
for readers.
In order to be specific, you need
to:
• provide a lot of details of situations;
• provide vivid descriptions;
• describe personal stories;
• create feelings and images.
In order to be abstract, you
need to:
• reflect upon your ideas;
• provide explanation of events;
• provide interpretations for better;
understanding;
• make comparisons;
• give statistics.
The balance between abstraction
and specific information:
• The writer shows
what is meant by
being specific.
• The writer tells
what is meant by
being abstract.
• The process of writing an application essay is
often compared with taking photos with digital
camera. The photographer zooms close to the
object to get specifics of it. In order to get
abstract, the camera should zoom out. In the first
case you, the photographer/writer provide your
readers with specific information about the topic.
In the second case you get a larger picture of a
topic, therefore you are able to explain the points
in broad context.
• Making your app essay
specific will help to
avoid too broad essay.
• Do not expect to cover
all your qualities and
aspirations.
• Do not go over the limit. If you have been assigned to write
a 250 words paper, it is the best you stick with this length.
• Another important thing to consider is providing honest
information about yourself.
• Given that app essay is intended to describe your personality
and views, some people may think it would be okay to
present themselves with new skills. It is not okay, really.
• You are just a person that is unique in own ways. If you do
not have significant accomplishments until college, pick
another topic. So make sure you are not embellishing your
success.
