Not much to say but this experience was AMAZING. It helped me with my college essay process! It made the brainstorming part easy for me because before I was struggling trying to even start my college essay. The tips that were given are excellent and I've took them into consideration.
They were very helpful, and gave many great tips to writing a successful paper!
Very informative, Jennifer was knowledgeable and friendly.
She was great. But the webinar itself was only okay, only because I attempted to ask questions in the chat that no one answered, and tried to put my video on but I had to calibrate audio or something and it wasn't working.
I ended up learning about so many things about college, and essays, and how this whole tedious process works. As a junior in high school I think its best to know this kind of stuff beforehand so youre not going into senior year worried stressed out about college! it was a wonderful experience learning more about scholarship owl, and the things they offer. I know off hand I have a college fund, and scholarship money from previous things ive done, im also a part of girl scouts, and do a good handful of extra curricular things so I might have a good chance to earn scholarships, if I ever come across a time when I need money to help pay for college! Thanks again, this webinar was an awesome experience, and I hope there are more oppurtunites for more!
The webinar was awesome. All questions concerning writing a winning esssy was well answered
Loved it. Thank you so much
I enjoyed this webinar. It was very informative. Forums such as these also serve to keep us connected and in so doing keep us from feeling as though we are alone. Not to mention having the opportunity to share. I am looking forward to getting the link and listening again/
I was disappointed how my camera would not work because my computer. I really thought, it was a great presentation.
The information I already knew, I was able to make use of the Q&A and it was reassuring to listen to others in similar situations as well as receive the pdf resources!
The ending is all over the place.
The material covered is helpful but the questions and comments afterwards weren't. I do appreciate the materials though. I wish the slides would have had sub bullets under each of the points. The actual presentation goes so quickly, I didn't catch all of the information. For example, the presenter said; "Show, Not Tell and elaborated on a person's quote but it went so fast....I think THAT detail would have been very useful. I think the presentation should be, everyone can win scholarships IF they work and edit their essays. They must choose n scholarship that is a good fit. They must choose a prompt that they can answer. A person must show passion for the ideals and values of the beneficiary. They must prove they are the ideal candidate to win the money = scholarship are work, not trick or treating candy. Do the work and you may receive scholarships. If your grades aren't strong, show how your passion lies outside of the 4 walls of school. What you DO then drives your passion. So, while the presentation was ok- I'm not sure it will help me improve. I think the resource that was shared will be helpful. Thank you.
Need to have video questions vetted. Too many of them had questions that didn’t apply to most students. Maybe that’s why the chat was so active and off topic
It was very informative and entertaining. I will be reviewing my old essays and making them better for future use. I loved the way Ms. Finnetti interacted with the audience and was calming enough to explain her answers to the audience.
I was hoping to get something insightful that I wouldn’t hear anywhere else but it was really helpful and much appreciated
Very informative and helpful in applying for schools and scholarships. The webinar was straight to the key points needed.
Wonderful Webinar, very helpful. Learned some new strategies to help me write my essays better!
This webinar encouraged me that I am taking steps in the right direction. Overall, it was Information I have heard before at various times and places. The two things, though, that really stood out was the fact that you encouraged us to be unique and emotionally connected, and you encouraged us to reach out to our school for help. I really appreciated the fact that you helped me and many others with the questions and were as detailed as possible in your responses. Thank you so much for your time!
Excellent and detailed presentation
