As you have heard many times before at college admission
workshops, what distinguishes you
from the other applicants with similar scholastic and extra-curricular
achievements is your personal essay. This essay serves almost as a
"personal interview" between you and the admission officer, it reflects who you
are and not only what you did. With that in mind, the essay should not be a
narrative of your accomplishments; rather, a chance to display your uniqueness,
character, personal qualities, inspirations, goals, dreams, and to simply express
yourself.
Many colleges now accept the Common
Application. Students can write personal statements on topics provided in
the Common Application's Personal Essay section. Some colleges require students
to write additional essays according to their own supplements. Remember,
whatever topic you choose, the focus is different from your SAT essay. You are
not taking a position on a prompt nor trying to convince the reader of your view.
However, you still have to be mindful of rules of grammar, organization, syntax, and word
choice.
Yes, personal essays should definitely be the student's own work.
All admission officers have seen it all, and they can tell if someone wrote your essay on your behalf. However, that doesn't mean that these essays should be sent to college admission offices
without proper editing. Guidance offices advise students to have either a family
member, teacher, or counselor to look over the essays and provide feedback.
Here at Essay-Practice, the personal essay editing service
will involve the following steps:
- Provide a guideline on how to write the personal
essay
- Review the first draft in full detail - highlighting
mistakes, recommend better approaches
- Interact through emails with students to clarify content
- Students make corrections and resubmit the revised essay
- Final fine tuning of the essay
In essence, you have your own reviewer coaching you along the
way until the essay is a satisfactory presentation of yourself. More detailed
information will be provided upon paid download.
