<p>I would like for someone to read my essay and tell me what they think, as in clarity, thought flow, etc. Is there any risk in pming it to someone I don't know?</p>
<p>There is some risk. Some people on here have precautions on people who haven't yet applied to college; others have precautions on how many posts the person has. The best precaution is to send to people who have many posts.</p>
<p>There are several people on the Parents Forum at CC who read and evaluate essays. (Not me). Post a request, along with an idea of what sort of college you are considering, and look for offers from those with many, many posts. Some of them work for universities and seem to have both enthusiasm for helping students and a good deal of knowledge. They might be more likely to help if you give a few details about yourself and are very polite and thankful.</p>
<p>Nothing will happen if you just take into account all advices, suggestions and ideas. However, try to make your own conclusion.</p>
