Most high schoolers in this country receive no help at all, because they don't know they need help, and can't afford it even if they know.

For the middle and upper middle classes who can afford to pay for educational help and realize that this might benefit their kids, investing in tutoring and test prep is far more prevalent than college admissions support. There are actually very few families who pay for the latter. But college essays are often read and casually edited, for free, by people other than the applicant: teachers, parents, other relatives, kind strangers on the internet, AI, etc.

College admissions officers are aware that any number of people, or AI, could have massaged candidate's essays into legible form. They claim to recognize when essays have been too "packaged".

Hmm. Except they don't. They like that AI tools can help FGLI kids now. It helps democratize everything and all of the applications now sound more polished.

The kids with the most polished (professionally hired rewview) apps did the best at our private for T20 OUTSIDE of HYPSM.[/quote]
