Hello,
I have been admitted to UCR as a transfer student and am thrilled to have the chance to join this wonderful institution. I am currently taking two classes at SMC, Speech 1 and Philosophy 1. I dropped Speech 1, because I realized that it's not part of the IGETC for UCs, but only CSU, and since I've been admitted to UCR, I don't want to risk the possibility of lowering my GPA, so I dropped the course with a 'W'. In addition, the maximum transfer units allowed for UCR is 70 units, so if I were to continue to take Speech 1 it wouldn't be credited towards graduation, another reason why I had decided to forgo the course. Last, but not least, my professor was a sweet person, but if you check on www.ratemyprofessor.com , you'll understand why I had to drop her course. I was simply not getting anything out of the class and it hadn't been a good experience. I've learned more at Toastmasters in two weeks time than 2 months of Ms. Kahn's Speech 1 at SMC. I am currently re-taking Philosophy 1 to make up the bad grade I got a few semesters ago and it will significantly pull up my GPA. I hope this doesn't affect my admittance to UCR. If I have to, I will take Speech 1 this summer and finish the course with a letter grade of C or higher. Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon!
Can someone please proofread this casual letter/email to counselor.
Can someone please take a crack at it? Thanks!

Hi,
You were told that it was a very poor letter. If you don't wish to change it in the ways already suggested, I prefer not to waste my time on it.

Hi,
Did you read the comments in your other thread? What do you think about them? I see no sign in your text that you have made any changes because of them.

I have read all the comments, but I don't know what it is I have to change to make it more organized. Is it really that badly written, can you give me an example or a part of the letter that really needs editing? I personally think it's just a very casually worded sentence, but it's always different from an objective standpoint. I'm very open to constructive criticism. Thank you!
