UPDATE AS OF 7/26/21: hey guys! i know i said i wouldn't charge money to look over essays in the video, but this video got a LOOOOT more attention than i was expecting and over the past admissions cycle, i've gotten an overwhelming number of requests. i get back to every person who asks for a review, so it's become a significant time sink for me unfortunately :( (tb to staying up late many nights to read y'alls essays lol.)

to that end, i will now be charging $15 for a review of up to all FOUR of the UC essays. i chose this price so that it's still much lower than what people usually charge (since i don't like the idea of overcharging when i'm not an admissions expert) - however, it's to help manage the load of requests and also because i *am* putting in a nontrivial amount of time into reading, editing, and giving detailed feedback as well as repeating the process after someone revises their essay and wants further advice.

if you'd still like to request an essay review, i accept payment thru venmo (@annie_liu) - just shoot me a DM on insta and send me $15 on venmo, and i guarantee i'll get back to you!! thank you for understanding ❤️
