are there any places (hopefully online since it'll be easier for me), where I can read examples of good UC application essays? (not just any essay, but essays that are picked as well written and posted public as an example). There're probably lot of essays out there, but it does not mention(in general) whether it is good or bad essay.

It could be of any year...maybe it doesn't even have to be for UC application...as long as it's close enough...

so if you know any It would greatly help :)
