About & Wisdom
DramaticStickyDodo's wisdom
Look, a lot of this is a crapshoot. I was a good applicant, but in a certain sense I feel like getting the Darrow offer was one part my interview/application and one part luck. So do your best, but don’t take anything personally.
And start early on applications. I had almost all my apps in (except for Harvard Yale and Penn, which were sort of afterthoughts for me anyway) before November 1. Start working on them in August–take your time, do all the optional essays, etc. As I said above, the Darrow was part luck, but I also think my strong essays helped set me apart. And yes, I have some good softs, but my two cents is that it’s more about how you write about them and use them to tell your story more than what they actually are.
