Personal Statement Line-by-Line Review
A full line-by-line edit of your personal statement: one essay, one round of detailed feedback, plus a free revision check.
The Problem This Solves
Your student has one essay, the personal statement, and needs it actually fixed, not just diagnosed. A quick gut check isn't enough when the essay needs real editing, but you also don't need unlimited rounds across a full set of supplements you don't have yet. This is the full line-by-line treatment, sized to one essay.
What's Included
- Personal statement only (single essay)
- Full line-by-line edit: sentences that aren't working get crossed out and replaced with specific language, not just flagged in a margin comment
- Strategic notes on story, structure, and voice, in addition to sentence-level editing
- First round of feedback within 3 business days
- One free revision check on your rewrite, back within 2 business days
Who It's For
Students who need their personal statement edited on its own, not the full supplement set for a school. If your student has multiple essays to cover for one school or a full UC PIQ set, the Submission-Ready Essay Intensive Review covers all of them with unlimited rounds instead.
Looking for More?
Would you like a more extensive review that covers every essay in your application, with unlimited rounds of edits until each one is ready to submit? The Submission-Ready Essay Intensive Review ($497) is built for exactly that.

“Jenny's notes on my daughter's personal statement were longer than the essay itself. We went through three rounds, and the final draft barely resembled the one we sent her. It finally sounded like her, just sharper.”
If the feedback doesn't give you more actionable insight than you'd get from a $300/hour consultant, email me within 30 days for a full refund. No questions asked.
After your purchase, you'll receive instructions on where to send your personal statement draft. Your line-by-line feedback comes back within 3 business days, plus one free revision check within 2 business days after you rewrite.
