Before I post - isn't it possible that Admission Com. checks this website??

Hi, I loved the idea of this forum. It's really helpful to get feedback (especially from professionals) before anyone submits their graduate application.
I was just about to post an essay I wrote when I was asked in one of the applications to "Share something about yourself to help the Admissions Committee develop a more complete picture of who you are."
This is in addition to the personal statement in which I already highlighted my academic and professional experience and why I think this graduate program fits me and so on.
However, before I post my essay.. it struck me for a second that... what if admissions committee checks for plagiarism by typing a paragraph from my essay... won't this very post I'm writing now come in the search results? won't they know if I wrote the essay entirely by myself or had some help?
just wondering genuinely... not meant to provoke, seriously! i DO need feedback on the essay after all!

Your trying to make your essay better by getting professional advice (note we do not write anything for the student) actually shows you will most likely become an important asset of any academic organization.


Again, if you you ask us to write an essay for you, we won't help you :). Whatever you write is your own work.

If admissions committee finds your posts by doing an online search, he/she will click on the "Member" link and will notice that you, named X Y, were in fact the original author of the essay. Even though now it appears you have ignored our recommendation and didn't fill out the "First and Last name" fields yet..
