Survey: What do people struggle with when writing applications?

Guys,

I am doing a bit of research to find out what college students (regardless of year) or grads struggle with when writing applications. To this end, I have put together a short survey which can be accessed here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/FLF7HPB

Could you please take some time to answer the questions? It shouldn't take too long at all and the answers would be invaluable to me.

Also, if you could pass along the survey link to other you know (FB posts, college email lists etc), that would be awesome as well.

Grateful for any assistance and many thanks in advance!
