[quote=Anonymous]I volunteer to read college admissions essays for schools in lower income areas in the DMV. It used to be those essays needed help and the students seemed unsure of the application process. In the past two or three years, the quality of the essays has really stepped up and students seem much better informed. There seems to be more emphasis in these schools and through third party organizations to do college application and essay boot camps. We've also seen these organizations take kids as a group for college visits, where individual families might not be able to do so. I assume they also help with SAT prep. I think these are all very positive developments to help level the field. [/quote]
