The following podcast contains explicit language.

One definition of explicit language is,

stated clearly and in detail,

leaving no room for confusion or doubt.

That's why we use those words. Hello and welcome to episode 319 of the Thinking Else that Podcast.

Today on the show we had a couple emails from listeners.

We had a flaw question from prep test 73 and we had a whole bunch of personal statements.

What did you think about today's crop?

We had mostly bad statements.

We did have one decent one, pretty good one,

and interestingly enough,

it was someone who had taken our advice

and was trying to figure out where to go next.

Yep. Keep your sentences short and you have the best chance of having a readable statement. When your reader can understand what you're trying to say, they

immediately assume that you're a good writer. And the best thing you can do to make it so that

the reader understands what you're trying to say is to just keep your damn sentences short.

And that's what that last correspondent did today.

This show is going to air on Monday, October 11th, pertinent upcoming deadlines.

You're going to be right in the middle of the October Elsat when you hear this, good luck.

January, L-S-SAT registration deadline is December 3rd.

And that's pretty much all you need to focus on for now.

Come to my class. I teach every Thursday a study group.
