The problems I had with these essays were developing an essay that I thought was really good and would have a big impact on college admissions. When I wrote these college application essays I felt pressured that they had to be good important essays. I know that these essays are just for practice but I still felt they had to be really good. This caused me to take great amounts of time in developing my topic and planning out my essay. On the other hand I did not have to do research on the topic since the point of the essays was to express yourself. In these essays the aim was to use this essays to display your personality to the reader so they can get a feel for what you are like.
