My craving for noodles and how i ate different spags in different restaurant, it felt like i was in that country.
I think this could be a fun one, sounds different and you could definitely tie it into your interests in studying abroad and discovering new cultures
@@score-yourcollegecounselor thank you, can I send you the essay for review and edit once I'm done
In your google drive folder, you have put many free digital SAT resources for us. Thanks a lot, sir. Could you please provide the answers for the vocabulary section too? 🙏
The answers for the actual questions are included with the buttons, but the matching to definitions part doesn-t have answers built in. I mostly used google dictionary definitions so if you search the word, you'll get the right answer.
@@score-yourcollegecounselor sir, the link doesn't work actually. Sometimes there is no link and sometimes it's showing error 404 :(
You might have copied it wrong or maybe there's an issue with your account or connection, it's working fine for me:

Hey man, I was wondering if writing about exercise and working out as a coping mechanism for my insecurities is a good idea? I learnt a lot of lessons about discipline and progress and it’s a major part of why I’ve taken up more challenges, hobbies and adventures lately
Exercise is super important and I think if it's had a transformative effect on your life, then go ahead and share that. To me, it's all about identifying the things that make you who you are today.
Thank you so much for the amazing tips! So helpful✨
Thanks for checking it out :)
I want to write about my love for spaghetti as my common app essay, what prompt do u think I can use😊
I usually tell people to finish the essay and see what prompt fits best. You can always use the last one which is open topic.
🥰🥰🔔👍🙏🏻🙏🏻💪
What time is the live stream please?
Not sure yet. If you have notifications on you'll get one when I create the event in advance. I'm thinking Monday morning Peruvian time though, that went well last time.
hey hey :) as you know I am preparing to be a digital SAT reading tutor... how many weeks of one hour classes would you break up this tutoring. I am creating the syllabus. So far I only have the Khan material.....which has 56 digital SAT vocabulary questions for example..
So I generally have 14 hours of English prep in my program. You can definitely be flexible in how you break that up.
That's really nice of you!! Thanks!!! @@score-yourcollegecounselor
volunteering?
You can definitely build an essay around that, although a lot of times that's going to be a supplemental essay topic so you might want to save it for those situations. Just remember to keep the focus on you and what you learned, don't just repeat a lot of details that they can get from your CV or activities section on the application.
Is it possible to have an essay review/ edited frm u?
For sure! You can go to prepwithscore.com and hit us up using the whatsapp link there, and you can send it over. I'll give it a free read and let you know what I think!
