Essay Exchange?

by robhunter » Mon Jul 18, 2011 3:50 pm
Hey Guys,

Wondered if anyone knew of any forum for potential applicants to exchange essays and provide feedback? I assume this is allowed so long as significant changes aren't made? Didn't see a portion of this board so wasn't sure how it was viewed here.

Not sure if such a forum exist but I would be very, very wary of putting my essays online to be reviewed by just about anyone. Plenty of plagiarizers around.

Secondly these are personal essays and you cannot get feedback from someone who doesn't really know you.

Never put your essays online. When B schools evaluate your essays they run it through softwares e.g. www.turnitin.com which check for plagiarism. Forget that someone might copy it.. That will happen. It might happen that the softwares label your essays as copied from the web as they will detect exact content available on the web.
