I was also wondering how you get a moderator to look over the essay, if that is possible.
Hello Friend, I'm glad you are participating. If you want to get people to look at your essay, just comment on THEIR threads and leave a link you your essay, asking them to come see it. We mods try to help everybody, but sometimes there are a lot of essays!! :-)
trying to salvage the injured people that they could.
This part is not worded well. Salvage is a word used for material things...
"June 2007 was by far one of the most life changing moments I ever experienced. --- here is another sentence I hope you rewrite. Say something specific. What is the "magic word" that captures your insight from it? something more specific than "life-changing."
This essay lacks substance. This lacks substance: "because not only am I dedicated and hard-working, but I am also extremely responsible." This too: "It can be said that once I put my mind to something, I make sure that I do everything possible to reach that goal." ---- these are "typical" and cliched things to say.
I think you should add substance to this essay by inserting 3 excellent ideas about the academic program to which you are applying... in an essay you should MAKE CONNECTIONS. That means you should help the reader see how the experience of witnessing an accident can lead to specific insights about your chosen field, areas of specialization, etc. What is your major? Make a plan, and express it here.
If you have a solid plan for the future, it will be reflected in everything you write.
