Hiring a custom essay writing for your personal statement

Filed under essay writing tips, March 2nd, 2010 by Essay Specialist

Now this is difficult, while I strongly believe that a purely original personal statement is ideal, I also believe that some individuals are so, so busy (you know, the community youth leader cum athlete cum etcetera), that going to custom essay writing firms is a very strong temptation. For these individuals, I think they should be forgiven if they hire these entities for their personal statement examples. Let us look at one very interesting (read: I disagree with a couple of major points) blog article from

Cheap Prices for Essays

Have you ever asked yourself why the prices might be cheap?

Essay writing companies love you to believe that they are using the highest quality academic writers to write your essay, but in reality they are using cheap labour from third world countries where English is a second language. Consequently, you receive a low quality essay for the price and the English grammar will be of a low grade too, something that your lecturer will pick up on straight away after you submit your work.

I know for a fact that many Indians and Filipinos can speak and write English flawlessly. Ergo, I respectfully disagree with this assertion. If I remember correctly, this is called the “Fallacy of Hasty Generalization”.

Your Essay won’t be Original

Too often or not essay writing companies who are writing your essays cheaply are either often changing papers slightly or sending you an essay that has already been written for other clients. The problem with this is that the paper that they are copying doesn’t answer your essay question and there is a huge risk of plagiarism happening.

There surely would be a few unscrupulous entities out there, but I think that by and large, these companies do come up with their own original personal statement examples. Besides, you don’t need to worry, try Googling it (“plagiarism checker”), and you’ll find dozens of softwares you can use- to check if what they gave you is a plagiarized form. Actually, one can simply use the free online samples if plagiarism is what he intends to do, but please, don’t fall for this temptation. This blog article narrates how some interviews have been suspended because the applicants concerned plagiarized their personal statement examples. Of course you may say- I will not be caught. Yes, you may get away with it, but then again, YOU MAY NOT. My money is on the latter, no offense to you dear reader.

So before you buy an essay from an online essay company, you should ask the following questions from the essay company first:

1. Ask what their payment methods are? Do they have a company bank account within the UK, where you can transfer the funds to?

Do not simply trust them just because they use a payment processor like PayPal or 2 Checkout (2CO) that they are not based in a third world country.

2. Ask them for a correspondence and office address.

You should be given a legitimate business address in the United Kingdom, if they fail to provide this, do not use them.

3. Ask for specific company details of the company.

If the company is registered within the United Kingdom, it will be registered with Companies House (which is the UK Government’s official register of companies). So ask for a company number and check it on company’s house website.

4. Ask for samples of previous work that they have completed for other clients.

Well, what can I say about these? It’s fine if you want to do all of this inquiring, but if I were still young and about to write my personal statements, I’ll simply write my original essay instead of using the time to wait for all of these answers.

My last word on this: if you want to veer away from custom writing companies, do it for the RIGHT reasons. Not because company XYZ12 is too expensive, or too cheap, not because they don’t want to answer some of your questions, but because writing your own essay will contribute to your betterment. You’ll practice your critical thinking, writing, brainstorming, and many others.
