How will that help the op, usually the essays on these types of sites are badly written and it is classed as plagarising.

why can no one just help the op instead of slagging them off, I find it really hard to write essays some people just arent literary minded. I think if you start of with ur intro explain what ur doing and a bit about the topic ur essay is on, then move onto looking at arguements based on pluses and negatives and then conclusion looking at evidence and which one u agree on.

It might help if u tell us what ur essay is on as each one can be different.

Nobody has been slagging off the OP,who has been offered some excellent advice.

Offering someone adviceon on essay writing whilst writing in textspeak doesn't seem very helpful to me!

It's more help than "why are universities letting people who can't write essays in" etc.

If they are badly written, then that's for the reader and previous readers to decide hence why essays are given ratings by other users.

OP said he wanted to have an example of an essay, so why is someone sending him an essay not plagiarism, but my offer of said link is possible plagiarism?

It is plagarising if the OP decides to copy them, which is the main aim of those sites.

The whole point of going to university is to do the work yourself, learning from your mistakes along the way. Why can't the op speak to someone at uni who is paid to help students who have difficulties in writing essays. Your option is the easy way, the other suggestions maybe harder and need to be worked at, but i know when i graduate I have done so through my own hard work and not by relying on plagarising essays on these dodgy 'Teacher approved' essay sites.

I wouldn't be happy if I left uni with a 3rd just so I could say "oh well, at least I learnt from my mistakes". I'd be more like "that was a waste of 30k".

If the OP was to copy someone's work, and that person is allowing them, so be it. It isn't our place to judge the OP on what he will do or won't do with essays that he is asking for. His degree probably isn't 100% coursework/assignment either, so if he can't do his degree and is relying on essays from the internet, I'm sure it'd be realised.

There might not even be an essay appropriate to his course anyway, but at least it'd give the OP an idea, which is what was asked for, not a barrel of abuse.

If he plagiarises them then it is certainly appropriate for people to judge that as being wrong.

If you can only get a third by your own efforts then that's the way it should be. Where would be the satisfaction in getting a better grade if you knew it was obtained fraudulently??

It is not our place, as anonymous people posting on the internet, to judge him as if we are superior because we didn't read an essay before doing our own.

I've read essays before starting my own. But I don't copy them. And I'm not cynical enough to suggest the OP will copy. Should I have all my exam results taken away now and my university offers because I did that? Did my reading of an essay give me a better grade than I should have got?

No.

And who are we to suggest reading an essay will give the OP an artificially high grade?

If the site is legal and allowed, why shouldn't I post the link to allow the OP to use, if he so wishes?

Can you give examples of the barrel of abuse, as I must have missed it?
