I've been trying to do my essays but they always turn out badly. Can anyone please post some essays from any school that got them accepted? Please? I really need some inspiration! Thanks!

You're joking, right? You don't *really* expect folks to do your work for you?

I'm not going to post my essays, but I did find several college application essays helpful. You can search "college application essay examples" online and there are several good essays out there, you just have to look. Libraries are always useful too! Check out the "college application essay" books, they're great and useful with examples. It's all about the proper researched resources. I hope this helped. Good luck with the essays!

No, I do not. They don't have to be from anywhere near this year. I just need some inspiration.

I found a great site with a bunch of college application essays! Thanks!

Maybe you will not think your essay is so bad after you read some of these posted on this thread last year. Some are truly dreadful...

@twinshk2 - glad to hear it. And I hope the examples you read help. I like GMT's take -- don't try to emulate the ones that make you cringe ;-)
