Thanks for the suggestion Brent! I considered GMAT Write, but heard bad reviews online about the limited "feedback" they gave.
Apparently they just give you a score based on their e-rater without any guidance for further improvement. I even emailed the service provider (Vantage) for more information. i took them 2 MONTHS just to get back to me with a one-liner ("Yes, you will receive feedback").

THANKS BUT NO THANKS GMAT WRITE!

just to share, i went ahead to submit an essay to awaprofessor.com and the feedback was really helpful. they even taught me the secrets of official essay graders (3 full pages worth).

it took them less than a day to give me my essay report too. so for those of you who need your essays rated urgently, or if you are simply frustrated with waiting for someone to look at your essay on this forum, this is a great resource!

Woah. That's a long period of time. After visiting the link that was shared here I've found only books I could purchase.

Did a quick google of awaprofessor and their essay evaluation looks very impressive. Anyone else here tried them?

I just received my essay report from AWAProfessor. Well worth the money.

As someone here mentioned before, the feedback given is very detailed and the expert graders are very helpful. I want to get 6.0 AWA score in my test and I am alot more confident of my writing now with their help.

I am going to submit a few more essays to them as I practiced quite a few questions. It is very nice to finally know whether my answers are good enough.

Just an update, I scored 6.0 for my AWA so I am very happy!
