Guide Review - EssayEdge Admissions Essay Editing Service

As top schools become more and more competitive, professional essay consultants are flourishing. With EssayEdge, you get a trustworthy and established company with hundreds of well-trained editors who went to one of the country's most prestigious universities.

EssayEdge is part of CyberEdit, and the parent company's job ad calls for freelance editors educated at Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Stanford or Princeton.

The company has been praised by the New York Times, Business Week, and others. The company also boasts a 99% customer satisfaction rate.

If you don't have confidence in your writing skills and you have a little extra cash lying around, EssayEdge is an excellent choice for beefing up your college application. However, your high school may very well have free services that are just as effective. A talented guidance counselor or English teacher may be able to provide you with equally good feedback for free.

Not the same essayedge, Member EHarris2666

I used essay edge about 6 years ago and was thrilled with their services. The essay I submitted was revised and proofread for gramatical errors. This time when I used essayedge, it was proofread but not revised. I could have spent a lot less money somewhere else if it was going to be simply proofread. Apparently, they have changed their policy about revision of essays because of plagarism rules. Therefore, I would no longer recommend them because their services are wayyyyyyy to expensive for what you receive.
