<p>Also, I have another personal question to ask, so if you would like to help me out please feel free to PM me.</p>
<p>they're both very important
if you write a well-written essay that tells admissions people nothing about you, then thats not going to help you.
if you write a passionate essay in the language of a first grader, then thats not going to help you either.</p>
<p>i agree with bob--how you write it is just as important as the topic you chose to write about</p>
<p>Let's say the essay is astonishing. Would they really care about slight comma splices or grammar errors, as long as the rest of the essay is written well?</p>
<p>Get someone to proofread your essay and you won't need to worry about slight comma splices or grammar errors.</p>
<p>i got a few people to proofread my my essay- my guidance counselor, my uncle (a fantastic writer), and my english teacher. They all have different opinions about a few sentences I have in my essay, and whether a comma is needed or not.</p>
