[quote=Anonymous]We hired an essay coach. I thought it would be helpful to have an extra (non-parent) set of eyes on the essays; I didn't think I could be objective about my DC's essays in a constructive way. But I hated her suggestions on the common app essay and that part was a total waste (she was somewhat more helpful for the "why us" and community essays). As for the "package" companies or individuals, don't do it. Your DC will wind up with an ED commitment at school they could have gotten into regardless. BTDT.[/quote]
