[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Find someone who is really dedicated, and, smart, and strategic and read a bunch of their edited essays. That’s what you probably need. The essay editing, though adds up if they are good and in demand. But it can and does make a big difference that is more important in my mind than anything else. - Two kids at T10/Ivy[/quote] I’m sorry, that really sounds like gaming the system. When is it no longer a student essay?[/quote] DP here. The student writes the essay, the counselor reads it and provides comments/feedback. The student revises the essay. In my kid's case, the counselor told my kid that her essay is completely the wrong topic and told my kid to write an entirely new essay. Well, my kid would never have taken that kind of advice from me, but in this case she followed-through. It was entirely her work and I don't think the essay sounds at all like it was written by an adult (I read the final common app essay).[/quote]
