What steps should I take when writing my college essays?

Is there anything specific I should or should’t do when writing my college essay? What are the most common mistakes others make and how can they be fixed? Should I show my teachers for help? #essay #college-essay

Do colleges find taking AP classes in high school more impressive than taking actual college classes?

I am currently a junior at a middle college high school and was curious as to if that sets me apart from others. Would colleges prefer that I took AP classes over college classes or vice versa? Do they even care at all? #college #classes
