Small mistake or something more?

<p>Okay, I was just rereading one my Cornell essays, and there was a slight typo, as in, I added an "a" in front of something plural. Granted, this is a MINUTE mistake, and I am probably being silly, but will this effect me? I mean, won't they think, "Oh, if this kid can't even fully proof his essays, why should we invest in him?" Would it be unwise to send a new copy of the essay, claiming that I sent the wrong version or something? Please, don't belittle or scold, but just offer some sound advice. :)</p>

<p>I think you should be fine, without needing to send in a new copy of your essay.</p>

<p>I think sending in an entirely new copy would be more alarming in the “this kid couldn’t proof his essays before hand” sense than them seeing a typo.</p>

<p>Thanks, those were my thoughts as well. I was rereading it, and much to my surpise it was better than I had orginally thought…other than the typo of course. :P</p>
