Hi all I am turning in secondaries with a friend who is proofreading and making some big changes, but it seems like my voice is being changed. It sounds different from my primary, but in a better way. Do they even care, if I had someone edit my secondaries thoroughly to the point where the voice is diff.
or will they think i didnt write them myself and hired someone.

thanks

lmao, when I saw this I thought you were eitehr hearing voices or sending voice recordings along with your secondaries.

In terms of literary voice, I suppose if the changes are huge some schools could wonder if same person wrote same essays. Why don;t you just take your friend's suggestions, but submit your own work. In other words, take what he wrote as helpful advice but rewrite yourself.
