Common App Essay Review
Your Common App essay has to work across many colleges at once. UniGPT helps you find the parts that feel generic, rushed, unclear, or too polished to sound human.
What makes Common App feedback different
The personal statement is not a resume paragraph. It needs a specific story, a clear point of view, and enough reflection to show how you think.
- Whether the opening scene creates immediate context
- Whether the essay says something beyond the activities list
- Whether reflection is earned by the story instead of pasted on
- Whether the ending sounds honest rather than inflated
Prompt fit
Most Common App drafts can fit more than one prompt. The better question is whether the memory, conflict, or observation is specific enough to carry 650 words.
Revision priority
If your draft reads like anyone could have written it, the fix is usually more observed detail, not bigger claims. UniGPT points you toward those pressure points.
