Due: Wed/Thursday September 11th and 12th

1. Read and annotate the example of stellar college admission essays from Johns Hopkins. In 2013, JH had over 20,000 applications and accepted close to 3,500. The admissions committed chose these essays as outstanding and memorable. WHY? What do they do that is so effective and productive?

2. Finish your first narrative piece. The prompt is designed to really make you think. Go through the questions before you start writing.

3. Typed draft is due on your block day this week. MLA, scoring guide, and assignment sheet are all due at the beginning of the hour on Wed./Thursday.
