<p>I’m really sort of shocked at the number of people who ask strangers on this site to preview their essays or their essay ideas. Everyone reading about Cornell is a smart person and should know better than this. Your idea, your essay could be stolen and submitted. Do you want that? Find someone who cares about your future to help you and give advice on all college admission essays - an English teacher, your college counselor, a parent (although they’re largely “too close” and don’t have experience)…makes sense, doesn’t it? No one here REALLY cares about your admission to any college, so remember that.</p>
