2 essays--could you please critique?

<p>hi--could anyone please look over my essays--one for notre dame and one for georgetown. i'm really worried about sounding cliche in both of them, and i think maybe the georgetown one is a little corny. </p>

<p>also, i have another essay that is 800 some words--too long for notre dame, but i've heard that limits aren't the biggest deal. is that true? i think this essay is better than the others--if you could look at that, i'd appreciate a ton.</p>

<p>thanks--if you can spare the time please pm me and i'll send. (looking over any or all of them is fine--whatever floats your boat.)</p>

<p>bump sorry</p>
