I’ve got 6 days to get this thing done. Any of you guys ever do one of these? I’m staring at the screen....can’t get off the starting block.

Any inspiring stories or ideas from those who have completed one of these things in the past?

No, what are you going to grad school for?

Perhaps you should consider not going.

I used to write papers for people. What’s it worth to you?

Why not just take the GRE?

I'm going to bet they're pretty confident their test scores won't help them at all.

I’m really not interested in taking the GRE if I can circumvent it.

I will write it for you if you want, but you must promise to submit it once it is finished.

I’ll never understand people who will twist themselves backward into not taking the GRE... when all you have to do is just take the GRE.

I took it 25 years after I graduated. I got the required score to get into the LSU grad school... and I hadn’t touched a math problem in a quarter century.

Trust me... you can do it.

Thanks for the vote of confidence......I figured I’d take a stab at this essay (<1000 words) to see if I could get by without it. If not......well I suppose I’ll have to take it.

1000 words? You could probably just copy one of my long ranting posts.

I say, I recall the days that I spent preparing my own dossier ahead of my adventure to the esteemed Johnson graduate school of management at Cornell. I wasn’t quite ready to leave Ithaca and those beautiful fall mornings, the delightful coffee shops and those delectable nut free non gmo gluten free low card fat free wheat free apple cinnamon strudels (i was also in a bit of a tiff with father over some outstanding bar tabs so he wouldn’t pay to have my Jaguar transported to a new city , ) so i poured all my energy into that essay. Be clear and concise my good fellow!
