Thank you WindowShopping!!

Thank you so much for the reply.

Does the essay have to be very tight? will they overlook one or two disjointed thoughts you think? I've spent close to sixty hours woking on this essay and its complete, but I know its not very tight.

I want to write the perfect essay because I've heard they put a lot of weight on it and also because I only have a 3.6 GPA from a community college in manhattan.

The content is good and I have quite an interesting story to tell but English is not my first language, so I know the essay could be a lot better.

I had one good editor, edit it for me but I'm still not happy with it. Should I keep stressing out over this?

Also what is the acceptance rate for GS? do you remember how many new people there were for new student orientation? are there students there whose first language is obviously not english?

sorry for all the questions, my life has revolved around this application for the last three months and I would really like to get in.

Thank you for your time,
Khorsani....
