proof reading supp. essays

[kae32]

with all these supplemental essays, are you guys having all of them proof read before submitting or just a select few?

...i feel like my proof readers (ie. friends and family) are getting slightly annoyed ;P

I would get all essays read before submitting. There was a place when I was in undergrad that help students read/proof their essays. You should check with your college, I am sure they have a place with people that help students with essays...my pre-health advisor also helped me with my essays as well and she didn't mind b/c it was part of her job...I would go to a professional for this. Unless someone in your family is an english professor or lawyer...
Which schools have supplemental essays? and which don't? I hate applying to schools with a million supplemental essays... I usually try to use the same essay for multiple schools too....
