Student Resource Central provides high-quality, unbiased resources for career research, choosing educational options and finding colleges.
The folks at Best Colleges Online asked me to write about or reference their article on 10 Admissions Essay Mistakes You Don’t Want to Make. Before I get to the 10 mistakes (they did a good job on covering the subject matter in the article) let me be clear that Best Colleges Online is funded by those colleges and universities that pay them money. So, finding the best colleges is really a little misleading which is par for the course in most “free”online resources (as is the case with those “free” assessments). Part of the mission of Career Coaching for Students™ is to provide high-quality, unbiased and complete information. The resources that you will find in Student Resource Central™ are stringently vetted to meet our requirements. Students automatically have access to Student Resource Central when they attend one of our workshops or purchase either the Home Study program or a subscription to Student Resource Central.
Now for those top 10 Mistakes Students Make with their Essays:
- Spelling and grammar errors
- Sending it in Late
- Over-sharing personal information
- Going over the Page or Word Limit
- Flirting with Controversy
- Using Cliches
- Being too Confident
- Being too Humble
- Trying to Suck Up to the Reader/School
