Care to read? "A Birthday Forgotten"

<p>I don’t know if this will be my main essay or not, but I would like people to look over it for me. I would like five experienced CCers, one with more than a hundred posts and are not applying to any of the schools I listed below, to view my essay. Thank you to the people who agree to read this.
Question to the readers, is my essay good enough to counterbalance my 640 on Critical Reading (damn English teacher), or is there no relevance between CR and the essay?</p>

<p>I’ll take a look.
The CR section is about reading skills, not about how good you are at expressing your thoughts.</p>

<p>I applied to some of the schools you’ve listed, but I’ve already received my decisions, so I think I fit your requirements. I would like to read it (but only if you see this today before 5 pm, central time, since I won’t be able to read it after that, and will probably forget about it tomorrow).</p>

<p>PM me. I’ll read it for sure.</p>

12

<p>I’ll read it, though I don’t understand why you’d want it counterbalance your score. In my opinion, either countering or balancing would be fine, but not both. Sort of like the double negative :P</p>

<p>“is my essay good enough to counterbalance my 640 on Critical Reading (damn English teacher)”</p>

<p>Why do people on CC always have to include an explanation for their low scores? Accept that you were the one that took the test, you didn’t do as well as you’d like and realize that everyone else isn’t going to stone you for not getting a perfect score.</p>
