a way to set himself or herself apart from the crowd. The essay is your one chance to
highlight the personal qualities and achievements that the application and MCAT
scores do not reveal.

the perfect submission. The winning essays cover a wide range of interesting topics. If there is any similarity, it is that they are written from the heart.

And a third applicant talks about time spent volunteering at a local senior center.
