<p>I have a draft of my common app prompt #1 essay pretty much ready to be edited. If anyone would like to take a look and give suggestions, please let me know. </p>
<p>I'd prefer it if the reader was not in high school and already in college. Also, please be somewhat reputable.</p>
<p>Thanks all,</p>
<p>P.s. I'll read yours in return if you'd like.</p>
<p>Please be wary of who you send your essays to. I decided to send my essay to someone in this thread and that person not only did not read my essay, but they completely ignored my attempt at contacting them after. Make of that what you will, but that person is a consistent poster in this very sub-forum and has logged on numerous times . Maybe I am paranoid, but seriously consider who you are sending your essays to.</p>
<p>Good advice, @bonsly , and just a reminder: English teachers at your high school are your best bet. You should not forget about them. Even if your essay is personal, suck it up and show them.</p>
