Despite already submitting to most of my colleges, I am extremely worried about the quality of my essays and if they even answer the prompt. Is there anyone who is willing to look over mine?
Its okay. They are not scrutinizing your or anyone’s essay so closely. They scan it and get a sense of you so try not to worry.
um… i tend to disagree ^. many, many colleges place heavy importance on the personal essay. i’ve read books where the adcom says the personal statement has the ability to make or break the application.
kn, don’t worry. i’m sure your essays are fine.
I don’t disagree with u kalons, but they have 100’s of essays to read and get through so perhaps at the end, those essays that really stand out might make the difference but if other things in your application are strong, the essay is not going to be the deal breaker.
The prompt itself is honestly not too important as much as what you say in it, but I can look at it for you.
That’ll be great! Is it alright if I message you the link?
I can’t imagine what good it will do.
If your apps are already in, why spend any more time on your essays?
