<p>I just spotted one on one of my essays, especially since I didn't have time to proofread it (I sent it 3 minutes before the deadline!) </p>
<p>Is this going to reflect really badly on me, even if the rest of the essay is really written very well?</p>
<p>It shouldn't be too bad; one small grammar issue won't detract from your whole essay. You're human.</p>
<p>Haha I freaked when I found out I ended one of my sentences for my Cornell supplement with a preposition.</p>
<p>Then I realised that I didn't really care.</p>
<p>Don't worry :)</p>
<p>Well, I omitted a critical "of," which makes the sentence sound really funny.</p>
<p>I'm sure that if the rest of your essay is written in grammatically correct, coherent English, one sentence that sounds a bit funny will not make a difference. Chances are, they're not going to dwell on that sentence for long enough to pick up the mistake, or they'll just accept it as a typo and move on.</p>
<p>Don't stress about it now. It'll be fine.</p>
<p>This applies to me too :). So does anyone here gotten accepted even after one or 2 grammar errors in their essays?</p>
