Hey everyone, if you’re like me, you’re probably getting a bit overwhelmed with all these supplemental essays. One thing I’ve found super helpful is figuring out how to reuse them effectively. For example, I noticed that many schools ask similar questions about your experiences and goals. By tweaking the focus slightly, I can customize my response without having to write a whole new essay each time.

I also keep a growing list of key themes and personal anecdotes that I know I want to include. That way, when I get a new prompt, I can easily pull from past essays while adding just a bit of specific detail related to the school. It’s saved me so much time and stress!

Remember, it’s all about making it sound personal while still being efficient. Anyone else have tips for reusing essays? Would love to hear your thoughts!
