<p>Also a quick question; for UC's, does anyone know how heavily the essays are weighted in the application process?</p>
<p>I've heard of people who claim to have gotten into upper-tier UC's just on the strength of their essay and heard the reverse from people who have said it mean absolutely nothing.</p>
<p>Can anyone shed some light on this? Oh, and if someone would like to volunteer to read my essay that would be cool too :)</p>
<p>I’d like to read your essay. And I’m not exactly sure about the weight of the essay during the admissions process, but I would dare say it is pretty dang important haha.</p>
