<p>i really need help on my college essay from as many people as possible...my english teacher is a tad-bit ditzy, so i want some other feedback on my essay. please reply and i'll PM you my essay as soon as possible....</p>
<p>basically, i tell a story then its impact on me... i'm answering the Common App and USC essay question of the "significant experience and its impact on you".................. it's a pretty powerful story i think, so if u have time to read it, pleeeease reply</p>
<p>I just broswed through it in around 20 sec and i have to say while that is a well written essay, it is not what the uc will be looking for. </p>
<p>hmm a rep from ucsb once told me that its the content rather than the essay itswelf that will be judged.as long as your essay has a nice flow to it and is error free, you are good to go. to me, it seems as if you are trying too hard there. a bit hmm...impersonal. some people might even say thats complete balony...even if its not. the way you presented it to them makes you seem in a sense...superficial.</p>
<p>i am sorry but i do not mean anything in a malign way but you made a mistake that many others did; u tried too hard and didn't add that personal touch to the essay. in short, uc detests such writing...</p>
