I find that college application essays stand out when they blend narrative style with very clear organization. College application essays need to have clear selling points and be easy to read, but they also need to be very engaging to a reader pouring through tons and tons of application essays. Be clear and personable. Promote what makes you unique.

You may think that your application is mundane or that because you did not win at an international level that you cannot write a great personal statement, but that is so far from the truth! To make an essay stand out, you need a unique layout, theme, or experiences. Lucky for you, there is only one of you! You can expand on personal anecdotes and memories to help tie in who you are to what you want to do. This is truly how to make a personal statement or admission essay stand out. Your authenticity needs to pull through and showcase the best of your abilities. As a personal statement expert and having written one to successfully get into medical school, I can turn your seemingly mundane stories into eye-capturing and heartwarming anecdotes.

Professional Writing Specialist for Essays and Scripts
My experience as a journalist (Yahoo!) helps set me apart from other tutors in helping you write an application essay for college. Consider how most essays are bland and common. I can make any student's life pop in the eyes of admissions officers. As I did for myriad subjects (many of whom were celebrities), I dive deep into what makes you tick as a person and what elements of your life and background will sing. By the end of the process, you will feel like the celebrity, able to submit your essays with confidence.
