Undergraduate / Computers and Me - computer science, mathematics, programming languages, the Linux terminal - for UC [5]

Rene, I just realized that I focused too much on the grammar side of your essay that I completely forgot to check what you are writing about.

Having said that, I came back to see what I missed, I read your prompt carefully and read your essay for the third time.
I made a very disturbing conclusion, you actually wrote a totally different essay, what you wrote is a narrative of how you
choose the course you want to excel in and what you think will help you launch a brighter future in your career.
Now, tis is not what the essay is all about, the prompt simply asks you to write about the influence that
honed you to become the person you are now.

You can write about a person, an event or maybe even a challenge that linger in your mind and made you feel like it's the right thing to do and

eventually shaped you to become the person you are today.

Once you have a draft, post it here on EF so we can assist you further.

Undergraduate / UPENN undergrad application. Prompt: Exploring intellectual and academic interested at UPenn [5]

Anabelle, the word restriction is absolutely the last of your worries now.
I read through your essay and yes, it does not answer what the prompt is asking you to do.

The prompt says, How will you explore your intellectual and academic interests at the University of Pennsylvania? Please answer this question given the specific undergraduate school to which you are applying.

All you have to do is focus your essay on the prompt, answer it accordingly and make sure that you integrate a little information on your academic background.

Let's try by following the guidelines below;

- what is your academic background
- how will this background influence your academic goals
- why do you choose UPENN
- what does UPENN have that corresponds to your academic goals
- what can you contribute to UPENN as your future home and the community as a whole

Finally, what is the ultimate gift that you can share, academically and personal, to the institution when you leave after serving for few years.

I hope with this guidelines you will be able to come up with a well written essay and when you do, post is here on EF so we can assist you further.

Undergraduate / GPPA Program: Why direct to medical school? [5]

Serena, I can see that you manage to get assistance here on EF quiet well and this is very good, it just goes to show that you are very open to objective criticism and that you value the works of others and the extended help they provide in order for you to come up with a well written essay.

Now, as you can see, the main reason why there is a confusion on your essay is that you missed to follow the prompt, not only on posting it but also

in writing what the prompt is asking you to write. This normally happens when you get soaked into writing what your heart and mind desires, which is not bad at all, however, there is a very crucial aspect in this area that you have to take note of, in cases like, what if you didn't have EF

to look into your mishaps or a second pair of eyes to look into your writing pieces, then you will be in great trouble and more so, you loose your chance

for the GPPA program.

For future reference, review the prompt properly before writing and when you are writing already, make sure that you glance at the prompt form time to time, to give you a reminder of where the prompt should go and if you're doing exactly what the prompt is asking you to do.

Undergraduate / My "best" friend - panic disorder. UC Personal Statement [7]

Rachel, I believe there is no way of rectifying your existing essay to make it more of what the prompt is asking you to write.

As the prompt is "Tell us about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience that is important to you. What about this quality or accomplishment makes you proud and how does it relate to the person you are?"

You have to write a totally different essay for this, something that will answer the prompt properly.
Your original prompt posted here is absolutely far from what the essay is asking you to write, therefore, changing it in order to answer the above prompt

will not make any difference.

The prompt on "telling about your personality.." is a good prompt and I can assure you that you will not have a hard time writing it.

You already wrote an essay before so this one should not be hard at all, it's not going to be easy but at least you have some idea already.

Now, when you start writing, don't forget to review what the prompt is asking you to write and make sure that you write accordingly, when you have a draft,

post it here on EF so we can help you further.

however, I don't see the details of your 5th and 6th grade to be very beneficial to your essay, I'm not saying that you have to eliminate this information but rather than

so stop blaming your parents on the unlucky life that you experienced, instead look at them as an inspiration to be a better person, believe me this is not easy job to do, to look at people who doesn't do anything but look down on you but step up your game and prove them wrong, strive for UC and make it big.

I believe your essay is written well, I may not be an expert in engineering and architecture
terminologies but your wrote your essay to the standard that even readers who are not that inclined with Engineering
will be able to understand what you are talking about. When writing, the challenge always lies in the, "what if the readers will not

be able to comprehend", "what if the terms does not relay your frame of thought", however, you nailed this
in your writing. You made sure that this boundary is non existence.

I also want to stress that your presentation of the paragraphs and the overall structure of the essay is clean and pleasing to the readers eyes.

Well, I hope my insights help and I wish you luck.

Undergraduate / My fencing world teaches me to work diligently on things that I am passionate about - UC prompt 1 [7]

Well Alan, to help you out in this matter, the focus of the essay should be you as the writer and the doer of the action, however,

what the essay is asking from you is your actions towards greater community welfare and to be able to do that,
you have to have a definite plan that soon will be executed once you get admission to the institution.

The only thing with you is that you're still indecisive on what you want to pursue and this is somehow affecting your application, however, you don't have to decide now, I mean, a lot of students have decided what they want to pursue in college, but is that what they really want and what they want to pursue in life, sometimes, or shall I say, most of the time, not really, most of the time, students and people in general, find things, develop interests and discover a great deal of options in life, so you see, it's not really a bad thing to be indecisive.

I believe all you have to do is, draw your essay to focus on who you are and what you can contribute to the institution and you will be fine.

Good Luck!!!

Undergraduate / Saving "My World" & Piano Plateaus - UC Personal Statement (Freshman applicant) [3]

Ivana, I'm back for the second prompt, it's good that you were able to maintain that fascinating way of writing essays that captures the readers attention.

The word choice and the sentence structure is good as well, again just mind your paragraphs, keep them to the minimum and make sure that when you do, the idea is still there and you don't get to delete the important details that answers the prompt.

Overall, you actually have a unique interest from the rest of the essays that I read when it comes to answering the prompt. Most of the students your age will have a different interest, anyhow, it's a well written essay, just mind the added corrections from the other EF contributors as they mean well for you too, for future reference, try to add lively notes on your essay, yours are quiet serious ones.

Undergraduate / Saving "My World" & Piano Plateaus - UC Personal Statement (Freshman applicant) [3]

Ivana, I'd like to share my thoughts on your essay,the first one is the one that I read and reviewed first.
I suggest that you merge the segmented paragraphs into 3 main paragraphs, this way is will be presented
in a manner that it will not look so crowded and rather an interesting read.

You started off positively on your essay which is very good, your word choice is also appropriate to the sentences and the
idea that you are trying to send out to your readers.

I would like to focus on the last paragraph for much needed enhancement.

- Perhaps wanting to save the world is ambitious,
- buthowever, I won't allow
- thatthis to discourage me
- becauseas my enthusiasm for the environment
- is so deeply rooteds fromin the experiences
- change my perspective so much, orand open my eyes

That's about it for me Ivana, I hope you follow through with the corrections made and I'll be back for the next prompt.

Undergraduate / I thought she was DEAD - [UC Prompt 2] [14]

Tonya, let me help you further.

1) Does it need editing?
Well, it seemed as though you did your own editing on your essay and you didn't really follow the edited version of your essay done by Louisa but I believe her version wis very helpful, specially because it draws out the negativity of the essay.

2) Cutting down, perhaps? It was hard for me to find anything to cut down, besides rephrasing statements.
Cutting down your essay will not help if the focus of the essay os not corresponding to the prompt, so I suggest that you do a thorough proof reading and see which sentences you want to eliminate, I must say that your 2nd paragraph where you wrote a few questions, this is not necessary as we have already established the frame of thought.

3) How does it compare to the first draft?
The second essay or the revision is definitely better and can still be enhanced.

4) Does the conclusion fit, or is it a stretch? If it is, I would be happy to change it, but it was definitely my 'ending on a lighter note' for this essay.

The ending is good, realizations in life is always a good note to end an essay.

I hope this answer you questions and enlightened you a little bit.

Undergraduate / I had the opportunity to experience Latin American culture - University of Washington short response [4]

Julian, first of all, I don't see your essay doing well in writing off in a negative start.
So here's what I suggest;

- I don't have the privilege of being able to learn about other cultures by visiting another country or talking to family members. However,I have always shared the passion to learn more about others culture and where I have grown up has given me the opportunity to experience Latin american culture in a way that can bring together an entire community. ( as you can see there is a huge difference in the introduction as it is starting off in a positive approach.

-We have lots of restaurants, the neighborhoods ,

Well, the essay started not fairly well, however you managed to end it in a very positive approach and turn things around.
For future reference, learn how to open your essay positively and carry on through out the essay.

Undergraduate / 'overwhelmed with emotion' - Transfer Applicant - George Washington University [10]

Daisy, upon reading your essay, it made me feel like I'm reading an essay written by a
freshman, there's not enough points to consider as it's written quite poorly.

You have to strengthen your essay by re- writing it with conviction and choose the words that you associate in your essay,
make sure that you describe things and ideas precisely and not just in a subtle manner. I suggest that you also do a little bit of research

on terminologies use in writing an essay to the university as they will criticize your essay very well and they will make sure that
you know what you are talking about and you know what you are getting into.

I hope to see your revised essay posted here on EF so we can help you further.

Undergraduate / It took me a lot of years to realize that the person influencing me the most was my father. Intro. [5]

Joshua, the introduction is fine but I will not say it's strong.

The prompt is asking for a figure that influenced you, I believe the best approach is not to talk about human beings in general,
start by describing your father as he is the person who influenced you the most.
His traits, words of wisdom, actions that you want to imitate and gestures that you want to
copy or do the same way. It's better to write an essay that is direct to the point and answers the prompt
right away rather than giving a whole new meaning of the word and then going back at it, save your other ideas for the next prompts that

you will have because, for sure, there will still be a lot more to come.

I hope you follow through and post not only the introduction but the entire prompt when you can.

Undergraduate / Dance Relationship - intended major; 1st UC prompt [3]

Kyra, I'd like to add a little editing in your essay.

- Of all the ways to identify themy self,
- I choose a dancer- a "hobby" , for little dreaming girls in tutus,
- one that I've containedpossess since I was small.

- My parents fondly repeatremember one story,
- of me in preschool in which the teacher planned out a music and dance time.

- This point was driven home quite when( what do you exactly mean by this phrase, because otherwise it can be emiminated)

- with the passion I hold and deep interest
- I hope to further develop my relationship with dancedancing .

So, Kyra the corrections above are my suggestions, I believe there's quite a lot of work to be done in your essay and it's workable, for future reference, refrain from using weak words, words such as "but" and direct translation as this does not help your essay at all.

Undergraduate / I thought she was DEAD - [UC Prompt 2] [14]

Tonya, as I read through your essay, it's as if I was reading a dramatic script for a film, it's full of details, creatively written and full of hope that life will be better in the end.

I believe you have managed to answer the prompt thoroughly and even if your word count is somehow a little too much, this is an easy fix, you just have to create a streamline of the ideas that you would like your essay to follow and eliminate unnecessary phrases or words that are not that important to cover your essay but make sure that the thought and the idea that you would like to convey on your essay is still there.

Looking at it in the format perspective, I believe you were able to come up with a good enough number of paragraph that backs up your essay and make it more appealing to the ruling panel of admissions staff.

Well, that's about it for me, should you need more assistance do let us know, EF will be here.

Research Papers / Persuasive Research Essay for ENG 200 "NASA: Why We Must Continue Exploring" [4]

Robert, you made quiet a following here and it's very true that your essay is very well written.
A few editing needs to be done but this is rather minor and you just have to follow the remarks above
and it will be perfect.

The difference you made on this essay is that you made sure that a normal reader will understand the purpose of your essay,
the terminologies that you used to describe in your paper is comprehensive and up to the level that is acceptable as to writing
a very scientifically inclined paper.

You also made sure that the paragraph and how you present the research is not crowded and not segmented.
Somehow you also managed to make a research paper with NASA as a topic that is very uplifting and creative,
to the point that every reader can grasp the message of the paper.

I wish you good luck and keep writing!!!

Undergraduate / The moment I opened up myself. -overcoming autism- [5]

Hi Shuto, I'd like to share my insights for the first two paragraphs of your essay.

First paragraph
-Many of my American friends seemed to be nevernot afraid of stating their opinions in front of others.
- It was time to say goodbye to myself in the past.

2nd paragraph
- I hated talking withto people.
- I couldn't stand even a slight change in my daily liferoutine ,
- I was oO nce , I panicked at the school
- However, I was, however, a "good" kid.

Shuto, the corrections above are just some of the remarks I made, I will get back to you to help out for the rest of the essay.

So far, what I noticed is your direct translation which you should try to avoid, this happens when you have an idea of what to write but

that idea is in your native language and how it transpires in English is rather odd, this is normal as English is not your native tongue and it's good to know that you are trying to be good at it.

I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Amin, kindly find additional corrections above, I know that you want to use big words on your essay, however it's not always the best way to do it.

Learn how to associate words properly in your sentences that will still keep it's appeal to the normal reader so much so to the panel of admissions officers.

Well Haris, to think of applying for a scholarship is already a challenge and to take on that first letter to write an essay that is your one shot to the scholarship is a rather daunting task, so here are some additional guidelines you might want to consider.

- research for similar work for the Erasmus Mundus Scholarship, this is not for you
to copy or anything because you know very well that you can do better than anyone else's work,
this is for you to have insights on what your essay is suppose to have.

In this research, the traits of socialized transmission inXX district were explored through conversations with dozens of industrial experts and professionals.( I'm not sure how beneficial the above statement is for your essay, the thing is it drags your essay out of focus and you have already worked hard to maintain the content of your essay to correspond to the prompt so I don't think if this is a good idea.)

- I postponed applying formy Master's degree

loosing it's appeal to the readers.

Undergraduate / My contributions to CU-Boulder's 2030 Plan [4]

Kunaal, as I read through your essay, it lacks a lot of the answers that the prompt is looking for, I suggest that you reflect on the prompt and respond accordingly.

You have to focus on answering the prompt and not in sharing the research you made in your previous school, you have to form the best response to the questions in the prompt. How do you think you could enrich our diverse and inclusive community, and what are your hopes for your college experience? This is the question and from here, draw your answer and strengthen it by adding your facts, activities and hopes that you want to share with your future institution.

Also, share more of you academic aspirations and not the ones that you have done already, I understand that your past is where you draw your inspiration, but you don't have to write the whole essay about this.

I hope you follow through and revise your essay and post it back here so we can assist you further.

Undergraduate / American way of life - UC prompt 1 personal statement - My dream school is UC Berkeley! [10]

Jessica, please do something with your segments and paragraph, I suggest you keep them to a maximum of 4 paragraphs so that they will not look crowded and the reader will not get tired of reading through your essay.

Your word choice is very good, you need this to be done good especially as this is for an English major.
Moreover, you have a good sentence construction and the flow of your essay is well done too.

The only thing that I also want you to take note of is mentioning or writing the words again and again, please refrain from doing this, avoid direct translation as well, this happens to people who's English is not their mother tongue, is it normal?, yes it is but you should try hard to break this norm and become better in the language.

I also suggest that when you re-write your essay, refrain from focusing on your roots as a Filipino, it actually doesn't matter where you came from, the important thing is, we learn and never stop educating ourselves in more ways than we ever think we could and learning a second language and be good at it is not an exemption.
