<p>Has anyone every submitted their essay to an editor, or gone to a professional service for suggestions? I just got my essay back from one service, and I was very happy with the changes that they made, it still uses my own ideas and my voice but has a much more formal style.</p>
<p>I know that this is sort of a contentious issue in admissions, but I feel like if the essay isn't plagiarized it is ok, and my writing ability (I am an ESL student) does not really reflect my student profile without being edited first.</p>
<p>I don't want to post the link of the business that I used, but I can provide an honest review if someone PMs me.</p>
