My College Essay...

[mlagoo]

so here's the thing. not only is it a terrible topic, but you're also not a very good writer. it's ok -- many (likely most) college students were poor writers when they left for college (and many remain poor writers during and after college). but you don't compound your mistake by also writing about something (i am (was) an underage gambler!) they will likely find reprehensible.

just find something else to write about. then after you do that, find someone that writes well to proofread it. but trust me -- the fact that your essay will likely be unique does not, in and of itself, make you a good candidate. you also need to make yourself attractive.
