因为我是申请Stanford. 所以最开始看到这个意大利人是Stanford毕业生的时候有点心动,而且他的主页英语是native,但是最后质量差到让人发指。
1. 你使用的Editor名字或者链接
Editor: itaproofreader
2. 你使用了哪项服务?
Premium(First Class) Proofreading for Personal Statement 在付款时还追加了一个的remove 100 words服务
3. 你支付了多少美元?
总计在125美元,没有任何折扣
4. 你对TA的服务评价如何?满分10分,你打几分?
他承诺会提供以下的服务:
Structural Edit
Line Edit
Rewriting
Proofreading
1 Revision
但是结果是,我花了100磅,最后他就只是把grammar mistakes给我改了。
他唯一 让我觉得我是消费者的点就是他回复基本都是30分钟内。除此之外,这次proofreading没有让我满意的地方了.......
我强压着怒火和他沟通我对结构优化的要求,并且我希望他能帮我把语言改得生动一点,让admission可看到我的学科热情,但是他一直的反馈就是我的PS各个方面都够好了,不需要多余的调整,还说我进入了一个grey area,每个人对好的PS的眼光不一样。
后续给的remove建议居然是让我把一个科研经历的整段删除。。。。。。
我也是一个有心眼的人,所以在让他做proofreading之前,故意留了俩chinglish的表达,结果一个都没给我改。。。。。
我给我英国native同学看了我的文书,他说很多句子doesn't make any sense.
说实话,1000块钱是小钱,但是这来来回回浪费的时间,和花了钱自己还难受的心情真的太扯了。各位避雷吧。
5. 是否愿意把修改前后的文书贴出来,让大家参考一下?
我可以贴一段:
原:
My first contact with knowledge related to robot vision and control was through a freshman innovation project, but no valuable resources were found at that time. Although I learned many algorithms through papers and Internet forums reading, it didn't help me, who was full of enthusiasm much at that stage. I also knew that only through systematic learning can I get started. So, at the end of my freshman year, I participated in a 2-month training camp for the school's robotics team during summer vacation. Finally, I gained a relatively simple but solid foundation. In my sophomore year, my classmates and I decided to participate in the National Undergraduate Robot Design Competition. Because of my strong interest in vision and control, I also took over the design work in this area. This experience was also my first contact with engineering code. Although I was a little afraid of the long-form code at the beginning, past experience of participating in ACM algorithm competition and the scientific learning strategies recommended to me by teachers and seniors made me no longer too confused. So, after boning up on CMake, then copying and understanding the code of the previous excellent entries, I finally wrote my first code file through my own efforts. Although the initial entry was full of hardship and uncertainty, after seeing that after a long period of debugging, the robot's gimbal can track steadily and autonomously, a sense of accomplishment and joy arises spontaneously, which makes me suddenly feel that my previous efforts are worthy. It went well so far; however, I encountered various unusual bugs and errors due to my stupid operations. For example, I even decided to use binocular distance measurement curtly without referring to enough research. In the end, the error was too large, and I was put into a dilemma.
