Can you use the same common app essay for multiple colleges?

Can supplemental essays be subjective?

Is it true that AOs have allergies or red flags about essays that talk about depression? This is something I heard in an YouTube video that's why I'm bit confused.

What are the things that Admissions reviewers look for in an essay? Pulling on heart strings story, bold stories of strength or personal development? What is most compelling for you the reader?

How are decisions made to either accept, decline, or waitlist an applicant based on their essay?

Those supplemental essays can have more than one topic? Or is just why you think this college is for you? (If the answer is yes, what are they usually like?)

Are grammatical errors viewed as a major red flag in an essay ?

Would typing out a rant about oneself as a draft and editing that be a good way to go about starting the essay?

Thanks

Could sending a view only or comment only version/copy of the essay to someone reviewing it work too?

@Zye, yes! A comment only copy could work as well!

If I’m writing about a medical condition, should I explain it thoroughly? I’m worried they won’t know what I’m talking about without an explanation

What is the mindset from admissions, diversity of class or top students? Can you elaborate on what the school's view is or mandate?
