[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s interesting. There are so many parents on this board that are very heavily invested in where their kids attend college, but also a huge contingent that consider editing an application/essay “helicoptering.” As a PP said, editing (especially a different pair of eyes) is very useful. I remember my mom editing my essay va k in 1989 and I we were a pretty “free range” household. It’s not a huge deal, one way or the other.[/quote] Seems to me that the repetitive posts are from a teen who doesn't understand that not having an adult proofread their app is not a sign of maturity. They think the opposite, that they should be able to catch all typos themselves because they are independent and capable young adults. Typos may not make much difference in college admissions, but I hope they don't think the same way about their resume.[/quote]
