So, you鈥檝e spent the last few months frantically working to meet your college deadlines. You鈥檝e done draft after draft of 鈥淲hy do you want to go to Dream U?鈥�, politely nagged your teachers to send in recommendations, camped out in your counselor鈥檚 office to make sure your transcripts have been sent and your fingers have blisters from keying in the endless customer service prompts at College Board to find your lost SAT scores.
