Hi Ethan , I heard somewhere that I should not give background information on my common app essay. How can I avoid this if im writing about my background. Thank you. I absolutely love your videos👑

@user-zl8vs1vf8j 9 месяцев назад

What do you mean by 'background information'

@be_happy90 9 месяцев назад

@@user-zl8vs1vf8j An explanation of the place where I live here in Kenya.

@Collegeessayguy 8 месяцев назад

That's interesting feedback🤔 There isn't necessarily anything wrong with including information about where you live in Kenya. There could be a danger of writing an essay that is similar to other students' stories of applying to college in the United States. Think about how you can come at the essay in a unique way. You can do this by focusing on displaying your values through your personal statement. There's more information about identifying your values here: www.collegeessayguy.com/blog/the-values-exercise
