How to Write a Winning Scholarship Essay

This reference focuses on how to write the best possible scholarship application for college and is another easily accessible guide by the Tanabes that any graduating senior should be able to read and follow. The book includes chapters about essays that bombed, sample winning essays, interview strategies and more. Each chapter begins with a page that list what you will learn in that chapter. There are lists that have boldface subtitles, sidebars, clipart – lots that will make this book not appear too intimidating to teens. I particularly like chapter that is a judges’ roundtable, where judges and sponsors answer questions. This practical guide is a book I wish more seniors would read.
