I recently coached a young lady who was working on her Stanford application. Stanford uses the Common App, but also requires applicants to answer some other questions designed to show the students' intellect and depth. Here, a college counselor discusses what admissions officials are seeking in terms of intellectual curiosity. (And he's telling the truth about Stanford's "intellectual vitality" question. She really had to address that!)
