<p>I wrote my essay about a B+ I got, can someone please read and critique it? Thanks!
p.s. Please don't be fooled by the title; its whining tone belies the optimistic attitude of my actual essay.</p>
<p>■■■■■?</p>
<p>(10 char)</p>
<p>No, I’m not a ■■■■■, this really is what my essay is about. Care to read?</p>
<p>Sure, PM me.</p>
<p>I’ll read. PM me.</p>
<p>I’ll read too. PM. :D</p>
<p>Send it over.</p>
<p>PM it over</p>
<p>pm it to me.</p>
<p>also, how strict are colleges about the 500 world limit?
Mine’s slightly under 600.</p>
<p>depends on the college. just try to really make that 500word limit within a few words.</p>
<p>so anyone with feedback?</p>
<p>I’ll read it!</p>
<p>Eh, I dunno. It came off a tad arrogant.</p>
<p>thanks, have any suggestions?</p>
<p>I’ll read it and give you a critique, but I highly doubt this will be a good essay based on the topic. I predict that 90% of the time you will sound whiny and 9% of the time you will sound generic. My opinion is if getting a B+ is the most significant and unfair thing that happened your life, then you need to learn to prioritize or get a life.</p>
<p>Basically you’re going on about how you got A+ in this, 95% in that or whatever and then that a B+ made you reconsider your outlook on life. I just can’t seem to justify how that classifies as growth.</p>
<p>Haha, I will read this. PM me dawg. :D</p>
<p>Ok, so from the reviews I’ve been getting, the general consensus is that my essay blows.
Should I scrap it and write about my love of French and Chinese languages (and how I speak Chinese but was illiterate and made myself literate) or is there anyway for me to turn it into a good essay?</p>
<p>would anyone like to read my activities essay? the 150 word one for the common app?</p>
<p>That topic is toxic. Write about the languages, but make sure you have at least one anecdote so it doesn’t overgeneralize.</p>
