I would like to extend my greatest appreciation to your Accepted”
publication. I recently applied to Cornell University. I read your
book from cover to back, wrote an essay about Snorkeling in
Okinawa” (which most people criticized), and got ACCEPTED to
Cornell. Thank you very much for your help, and I’ll be sure to
refer this book to anyone applying to college.”
