I fibbed a little... 3 done, 1 in outline stage - > 4 total for Round 1.

Need to get my butt in gear to put the finishing touches on these though.

Wrote = Drafts done, finalized, and you have no intent to edit them further.

Impressive!

Have you found that they get easier as you go?

I've got one 95% done and a second ~70% done. However, two of the questions from my first app are identical to two of the three questions on another, so that one is ~60% done too.

I just said two.

Yes! they get a lot easier. I'm also lucky in that there's a lot of overlap between my schools so I can reuse a lot of the same material. :)

1 submitted. I am having an equally hard time with my second application (they really get easier?) and am convinced now that I can forget about doing 5 schools. ugh.

I have completed 4 and I'm halfway through the 5th one. I'm really starting to get burned out. I'm hoping that once I've completed the entire set for a school it wont be as hard to duplicate for other schools. If so I'm in a heap of trouble. :shock:

Is the survey for entire essay sets or individual essays? If the latter, then I'm already at 8 (2 apps already submitted) :?
