[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] .... can you really tell which ones are written by the parents/professional? I don't work in admissions at all, but I think I'd be able to tell - or at least have suspicions. So what gives it away?[/quote] Er[b]...have you seen the way most kids write? Ok, maybe more difficult to tell at that age but you wouldn't believe the number of non-age appropriate perfect papers we see at our private K - 8. [/b]:shock: [/quote] Last I looked students in k-8 don't write college admissions essays. So the question is still out there: can the college admissions people tell when an essay has been written by a parent or professional? If not, you kid may be at a disadvantage if he or she is writting their own application. Sad, but I suspect this goes on alot. See then thread on DCUM about spouses taking a year off or quitting to manage thier children's college application process. [/quote]
