On the right track? Advice on essay needed

College Essays
1

<p>This essay is completely rough draft, I've just been thinking about the "topic of my choice" essay for awhile and I want to know if I'm on the right track basically. I don't have strong SAT scores (honestly mine are bad, I'd love a 1900...enough said) so I'm relying on my essays to give me the push I need. </p>

<p>I just want to know if the topic is good and if it gives colleges the right idea. No class of 2008 people, obviously. I know that a lot of people on here have a lot of experience of the admission process and about college essays, so it'd be really great to read a critique of something I've written. </p>

<p>So please EMAIL ADDRESSES of people who seriously know what they are doing...I'll be checking stats profiles/number of posts/etc. just to be sure I'm getting credible information...then I'll email you the essay!</p>

<p>Um what's the essay topic?</p>

<p>well I used to make personal to-do lists last year and the essay is basically about how things got too complicated, trying to "organize" my life...it's probably stupid lol but it's just an idea.</p>

<p>hmm... at least it doesn't sound too cliche............it really depends on how you portray it. avoid corny-ness.</p>

<p>yeah I tried to be creative, and that's pretty difficult for me lol. anyone else??</p>

<p>send it... this one actually sounds like it could be good if done properly. I need some essay practice before college next year (I used to edit as though my life depended on it).</p>
