How much help should I seek on the essays? Who should be asked? How much help is too much?

It is expected that you will do your best work on an essay, and the essay should, of course, be your own work. No one should write it for you; and under no circumstances should you “purchase” an essay on the internet. On the other hand, it is also expected that you will avail yourself of the resources of an editor whether that would be a college essay adviser, a counselor, your own English teacher, a parent, relative, or family friend. Keep in mind that some counselors insist on seeing your essay and giving some feedback and that your English teacher will be helpful in catching technical errors. Parents have a tremendous stake in the admissions process and are often very helpful. It is, of course, an excellent idea to work with someone who is objective, who can view your work with a critical eye, and who can help you perfect your essay.

Testimonials

Since it was a last minute decision to apply to graduate school, when I contacted MK, I did not have much time and wanted to complete my application within two weeks.　The　quick and efficient　worker　she is, she　responded　to me with her initial comments and corrections by e-mail within 24, and we　met once　to finalize the essay together.　I was able to send my application to the school by the end of the week, and it was one of the most beautiful and eloquent essays I have ever written.　 She did not take my voice out of my writing (which tends to happen when someone corrects one’s writing); it flowed more naturally; unnecessary details were　removed to meet the word count,　and of course,　she made it　a fun and enjoyable experience for me.　I was accepted in to the program shortly afterwards. Thank you for all you have done for me, MK!!
