“Dan is excellent at what he did for us.  He does not write the essay, but what he does that is particularly valuable is that he listened effectively (yes, that is the ideal word here) to my daughter discuss her background, her key interests, strengths and weaknesses, and helped her come up with an essay that revealed her personality in the very concise manner required to tell her story.  To me, the essay is critical because it is the only way for an individual to stand out (good or bad).  Dan is absolutely a master at this in my view.  The upshot? My daughter just got accepted ED to her first choice Ivy league school.  Was the essay the critical factor? I'm not sure, but I do believe it was a contributing factor.  I researched this space a lot before hiring Dan, and am convinced he is the best.  I will certainly use him in the future for my other child.”
