WAYWARD_TROJAN

I definitely vouch him. He is excellent in his critics and replies quickly.

Put him as your first choice

I've recently received my essays back from wayward_trojan, and his comments were EXCELLENT. All his revisions are very well thought-out, and he doesn't focus on simple grammatical errors as any editor might do. Wayward_trojan shows actual EXPERIENCE, he provides insight on what colleges are looking for, and what the essay really is about.

What I especially like about wayward_trojan is that he is blunt, to the point. That's what sets him apart from the other revisers. He doesn't hold back on any of his critique, and the clear-cut comments really got me to focus! I realized what a writing emergency I was.
I now know how to write my essays thanks to this phenomenal editor...Thanks so much wayward_trojan!

I hate to disagree with my well-wishers, but I have quite a load at the moment and haven't been as fast these days. Please continue to send in essays, by all means, but you'll have to wait one to two weeks for a returned draft at the very least.


Send essays to: jrapp@sas.upenn.edu
Include the prompt(s) and your intended schools


If you have a really urgent request (e.g., early action applicants) and have an imminent deadline, put URGENT in the subject line and I'll put you at the top of the pile. (Use the honor system, please! Only if you're really desperate.)

Thanks for your help. I sent my essay to you on 9/27. The University I am applying to does not have early action but it does have rolling admissions. I hope to turn everything in before Nov 1 (when my SAT scores some back). The priority deadline is 12/1.

Would this fit your qualifications for URGENT?

Thanks again.

wayward_trojan was great help with my essay.
He is excellent with wording and can make your essay sound a lot better.
Besides that, he is also pretty good at giving you helpful critique to make your essay more formed to what adcoms want.

I came across this thread, and was hoping that there might be anyone here available to critique my essay for me? I need to have it finished in the next few days and I haven't found anyone that can help me in such a short amount of time....are there any volunteers? References? If so please PM me!

I would be wary of wayward_trojan. He doesn't seem legit to me. I sent him one of my essays weeks ago and I haven't received a response. Also, it seems that a lot of the people who are vouching for him have pretty low post counts. Just my two cents.

You haven't received a response because I have literally dozens of essays to edit. I'm still happy to get to yours, but you'll have to wait your turn like everyone else.
