[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 15 yr old son writes brilliant essays. Perhaps your dd is the same.[/quote]

and my[b] DD's freshman year roommate write her UVA essays hours before the deadline.[/b] Yes, it can happen, but I imagine someone must have eyeballed them.

My DH is a professional writer and I write alot in my job. Neither of us had anything to do with my kids essays. I spent a few hundred dollars to have an essay consultant help them but again all they did was brainstorm ideas, and make suggestions. The final essay was in my kids hands, came entirely from their brain and they wrote them.  The essay consulted nixed an idea of my DDs because it was too cliche, and asked her to dig deeper, which she did. In the end, she had a highly moving essay which was noted as "thoughtful" in her application notes at her school. My philosophy was that they'd done all the hard work for 11 years to get the grades and the test scores, so I wanted to offer them a resource to ensure they were producing strong essays.  [/quote]

Well, that violated UVA's Honor code and one of them should have reported it. UVA students take cheating very seriously. They sign that pledge at matriculation[/quote]
