I discovered a classic (and boring) resume in prose. “First I did this and then I did that.” There was not a character trait mentioned or demonstrated in the whole essay. He had failed to answer the question. And he had a lot of material that he could have used too.
I was shocked that my own offspring had so blown this essay! I asked him if there is any reference in the essay to a character trait. He sheepishly admitted that there was none and acknowledged that he had failed to answer the question. We discussed examples of particular traits that he could use and a structure for the essay.
