CBC Express Q&A
Tell me about the quality of the feedback that my student will get?
The better written and complete the essay we receive from the student, the more strategic feedback and editing our consultants can provide. Each essay will be returned with a rating: 1 (it's a good start), 2 (good but needs improvement), or 3 (very polished). Essays rated 1 or 2 will benefit from subsequent CBC Express orders.
Do I have to pay the full price again for a second review?
Yes. However, as an existing CBC Express customer you will get access to a consultant even if we are fully booked.
I placed an order, now what do I do next?
Download the digital file for directions on how to send the essay (Google Doc file) to your consultant. Within 48 hours of receiving your essay, we will return a copy with comments and editing suggestions. Use our expert feedback to update and enhance your essay. Happy writing!
What do I do if I place an order and don't see the confirmation email with the digital download for instructions?
Please check your spam folder. You will also get an immediate confirmation in your browser with an arrow to download the digital file for instructions.
What if I have two supplemental essays for one college? Do I order two reviews or add the word count together and order one?
Either way works for us! And, we highly recommend that you hire us to review all supplemental essays for any given college so that we may provide the best feedback and strategy.
Will it help for me to also send you a PDF of my application?
You may send us any supporting information that will help with the review of your essay. However, it is up to the discretion of the consultant as to how much time they spend "getting to know" this material.
How do I schedule a meeting?
CBC Express is 100% asynchronous.
