I've listened to practically every "accepted" essay on youtube. THIS, replete with all its extended metaphors and themes, is head and neck above the others! Truly a beaut.

This is a really wise insight. Honestly you just got at the crux of what makes this essay (and college admissions in general) feel so huge. Trying to promote yourself when you still aren’t even sure who you are (or where you want to go or what you might want to do when you get there). Thank you by the way💛 I would say just take it step by step, and along the way you’ll find that you’ve actually learned a lot about yourself

What did you end up writing about?

Finally, someone who doesn’t talk about traffic lights, walls, the floor, or something else like that. I feel like I can really connect with you and what you’re saying, so thank you so much!!!

lol i love how it’s a college advice video that doesn’t go over “hacks,” but rather ACTUALLY opens your eyes on what writing an essay about yourself means and needs !!! i really loved how you kept reminding that we shouldn’t dilute ourselves with the thoughts and ideas and essays others may be writing/have written. With so many edgy essays having made headlines or being thrown in our faces it becomes so difficult to focus on authenticity and writing how you yourself would want to write, and even makes it hard to talk about things that actually = you! And your essay is crazy!!! I was able to see (past) you in it as soon as you brought up worrying about if the flamenco dancer’s passion was too much!! That itself is creative- to show how our perspective and thoughts on things are unique and reflective of our own deepest thoughts, and looking into times we’ve been worried about something or happy or anything can convey who we really are too!

You really put me in the mood to start writing

I’ve only listened to the first half of the video so far and it is the best thing I’ve heard since I’ve started this process. It was so well worded, really got me thinking, and made me feel better about myself.

Now I’ve finished the video and that was the best essay I’ve heard yet omg

This was the honesty I needed right now. My applications are due in a month, I have 40 pages of useless "brainstorming," and I'm so stressed out about finding the perfect topic. Thank you for being real; I feel like no one around me right now understands how stressful and aggravating this is!!!

I'm honestly speechless wow that was beautiful seriously the best essay I've heard just brilliant thank you for sharing

This video is everything!! In the first half you completely summarized my frustrations with the idea of a 650 word essay and how challenging the ideation process can be. You are so well spoken and such a beautiful writer! I hope I can channel half the elegance and magic you wrote with into my college essay.

Writing a great Common App essay can be challenging, but here are some tips to help you get started: Start early: Don't wait until the last minute to begin writing your essay. Start brainstorming and drafting your ideas well in advance to give yourself plenty of time to revise and polish your essay. Choose a unique topic: Don't write about something that has been written about countless times before. Choose a topic that is unique to you and that will allow you to showcase your personality, interests, and experiences. Show, don't tell: Use concrete examples and vivid descriptions to bring your story to life. Don't just tell the admissions officers what happened, show them how you felt and how you grew from the experience. Be concise: The Common App essay has a strict word limit, so make every word count. Avoid using unnecessary words or phrases and focus on conveying your message as clearly and concisely as possible. Be honest and authentic: Don't try to impress the admissions officers with what you think they want to hear. Be honest and authentic in your writing, and let your true self shine through. Get feedback: Have someone else read your essay and give you feedback. This could be a teacher, counselor, or trusted friend or family member. Take their feedback into consideration, but remember that ultimately, it's your essay and your story. Edit and proofread: Once you've written a draft of your essay, edit and proofread it carefully. Check for spelling and grammar errors, and make sure your essay flows smoothly and makes sense. If you need someone to help you write the essay, reach out to me. I also do personal statements and research papers.

This video makes me less anxious. I’ll have to watch this again tonight when I start my essays.

This honestly made me tear up a little because your writing is so purposeful and your storytelling is beautifully done :')

Man I’ve watched tons of videos, each with the same advice. BUT THIS..THIS FELT soooo much more genuine. Like I felt your introduction and you really put me in the position to want to work harder and get my essay done THANK YOU

This is the best advice and essay I've heard. thank you so much for sharing :)

Such a beautiful essay, I can tell you have a genuine soul :) thank you so much for the advice

I love your essay. It's full of creativity!

Your essay is so heart-touching that it made me cry.

I need more videos like this one! I would love to read another essay of yours. Truly mesmerizing.

This is by far the best advice I have gotten from college essay videos, thank you!!

Thank you so much! This is by far the best advice I've received from KZread, applicable and genuine!

Hands down, the best essay I've heard!!

Your advice is so so helpful! You’re so reassuring and you seem so sweet :) thank you so much for making me less anxious 💖

I'm literally gonna start crying thank you so much for this

OMG you said everything so genuinely. Absolutely loved it! Thank you

Thank you. Truly. This video had some of the best advices I've ever got.

your essay truly was a piece of art

I don’t want to apply to any Ivy League schools, and I don’t really know exactly what I want to do in college and what career path I want to pursue afterwards. But I still want to write a great essay that I can be proud of no matter if I get into my dream school or not. You have encouraged me to write the best one I can, and you have given so much unspoken advice just by reading your essay, so thank you!! (The biggest thing for me about the essay is getting a good scholarship, so this helped a lot 🫶🏻)

Wow. That was beautiful. THIS is the push and honest advice i needed to tell my story

The best essay I ever heard❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your essay is beautifully written, i don't know how ill ever write something that amazing

A sincere thank you, for expressing what I could explain in my mind but struggle to put in words on paper. You’re essay is truly inspirational and one of a kind. I hope you’re future has great things in store for you, you definitely have the potential and ability as I listened you’re essay. Love and blessings from a Jersey native too :)

amazing, youre so poetic with your syntax ! each line is rich with identity

wow. amazing. i’m stuck on what to write on right now but i’m feeling inspired. thank you :)

this is amazing. passion and patience all day every day! thank you for this.

I loved your essay! It was very well thought out and I really resonated with it, especially when you mentioned лютеница and баница🇧🇬

Wow ,you have put together your emotions in an incredibly nice way.good job

i've watched this video twice already, and it is incredibly helpful. you're so calm, which has helped even more because i'm so nervous about the whole process. thank you so much for your insights and advice :) your essay is SO beautiful btw!!

The first part is so comforting I'm so glad I'm here ^-^

the best personal essay i've ever heard or ever will

Amazing! Next time someone asks me for essay advice, I'm just going to send them this! Thanks so much for sharing!

This is quite possibly one of the best video I've seen on college essays. You're also a wonderful writer, I loved it

That essay is a work of art. Unbelievably beautifully written. Very poignant- I LOVE.

i've been watching a lot of college essay videos on youtube for inspiration though i still haven't found it even through this. I never comment but i couldn't hold myself back from this. I just wanted to let you know this is one of the best essays i've heard out of all the essays i've already heard in the past. and i mean that great job really, it's princeton's lost

you are such a good writer that I can't pinpoint a favorite line from your essay, your essay is truly a colorful finished carpet

You’re advice is quite insightful and comprehensive on college admissions - especially at a time when the future of higher education at this moment is uncertain for aspiring students, enrolled students, faculty, and academics...

This is so well written and seems so heartfelt, especially in comparison to other college essays.

that essay was insanely beautiful. just wow. currently going through the essay writing process and i felt so lost before watching this video. Thank you!!

i love how u expressed this with so much emotion, its what makes us human. i think we often forget how to connect with ourselves thru trying to curate these perfect cookie cutter admissions essays when really there is no right or wrong, we should write from the heart ♡

Loved it! This is so useful for students applying to colleges and demonstrating their uniqueness through common app essay , where they can build their application and showing themselves in the story that they share with admission officers! I remember my time applying - if I had this video before, it would have helped me out with college admissions a lot

Beautiful essay, as always so thoughtful and in depth. I agree with Julia, in high school you have to stay as true to yourself as possible. Easier said than done when you are competing and comparing yourself with other people in your class. But really write what represents you in the best light. Being yourself will save you from going down a path you pretend to love.

I am sending this video to all my friends that are applying & going to apply to college because this is the best & most wholesome advice I have heard since I started the application process. If I get into my dream school I will make a video like this and link your video in my video’s description.

Genuinely this is the first video that helped me. I’ve watched many videos and they have shared valuable information but it left me scared to start writing because I was conscious of everything I should include. Compiling my list of traits helped me start- thank you so much!

this is the most beautiful thing i've ever heard. you are something else.

That essay is a freaking work of art

Absolutely phenomenal insight and very helpful. It goes beyond a typical college essay advice video in that Julia takes the time to open up and offer anecdotal tips. Her sincerity is genuine and the audience can tell she really cares. Anyone seeking advice on these complicated, tortuous, yet necessary essays would do well to watch in its entirety.

your first sentence of the video is incredibly relatable to me

you have such a lovely and calming voice. thanks for the help!

Honestly I really feel like am not good at anything at all and I can't even figure out hoe to express myself and write the essay but somehow this video made me feel confident and hopeful. Thankyou this was great!❤️

This Essay is the most beautiful I've ever seen. Even if it weren't you reading it, I feel like I could still hear your voice, and through the page, I would know you are the type of person that is pleasing to be around.

I am speechless. I did not think that was possible. Everything about this essay is beyond flawless, which I didn’t even know was possible. I can’t even think of a word that will encapsulate the intellect of that essay and how that essay made me feel. I am speechless.

I am applying to colleges this year. There are so many college essay videos on youtube claiming that those essays "got them into xyz school". But honestly, I found your essay to be the most genuine, rich and beautiful of them all. Thank you so much for sharing your essay and the advice. I absolutely loved this video and it really helped! :)

Thanks, You really put me in a mood to start writing.

Ive never been able to watch KZread videos about college essays, I was looking for THE video and I found you. My application deadline is Feb 1, and I still didnt finished my college essay. I was looking for something amazing about me that could impress. But when I heard you saying ''its not about what you're writing, but who is writing'' it hit me so hard. Thank you so much, now I know what my college essay is going to be about. I'd really would like to send you my personal statement to know what you're thinking about.

this essay is the best thing i have ever heard. so much better than the costco essay if you have read that one. this should get so much attention! i can feel the passion and interest through the screen. i am a junior in hs and am thinking about essay topics and this video was the only one that actually helped. thank you!

Wow... that's genuinely such a beautiful essay.

So touching, толкова трогателно.... Obviously not everyone can write great college essays but a great essay can come from anyone. We are in the middle of the college application process and after watching numerous clips, reading examples, etc, etc, my wife and my daughter "се просълзиха" for the first time, and perhaps the only time...

YOU ARE MY NEW FAVORITE HUMAN BEING

I never comment on youtube posts but this is actual gold oh my god

This is awesome 👌 👏 very eloquent work about the complex differences of cultural identity ❤❤❤

Absolutely hit the nail on the head. Creative, genuine, transformative, reflective, and so much more...

This was so helpful; thank you so much! I was having writers block but this got me out of it! Thank you! :)
