[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Went to a college info night at public high school and there was a UVA admissions rep there. She said parents should absolutely look at their child's essay. Not write it or commandeer the process, but another set of eyes is always a good idea and sending it off without that would be foolish.[/quote] That sounds like very sensible advice. Why wouldn't you want to give your kid his or her best advice for such an important document? We have worked with each of our children on their essays, albeit in different ways. Each child had distinct needs and preferences. One wanted a lot of brainstorming for ideas, one only wanted us to look at the final product, one wanted input on multiple drafts, and our fourth has been a combination of brainstorming and input on multiple drafts. Four down, one to go![/quote]
