Here is my college application essay. I didn't send the actual application, but I did finish the essay. Here is the link to it on my blog.

Hi!
Just thought I'd put in my two cents about what I've learned for the college essay process

1) if you're stuck on your essay or having trouble just getting your ideas down, try writing it on paper first. Nothing kills creativity more than a blank computer screen, at least for me.

2) get your guidance counselor to read it!! especially if you're stuck between two essays! if you still haven't picked a topic, talk to them about that too, they'll have good advice. They know what colleges want and what will make you look the best.

3) get an english teacher to proofread/edit your essay! especially if they are an AP english teacher. They can also help with lowering your word count, if that is an issue. They'll also catch the little grammar mistakes that make it through online grammar checkers.
Also recommend good article [url]https:/[/url], it helped me with my aplicatipn essay

I'm not sure if you still need some help. But I would recommend you to contact Supreme essay guys each time you need some help. They usually both proofread and edit my papers. So you can give them a try. Best of luck!
