Feature · Document Critique

Know the weaknesses
before they do.

Scholr reviews your SOP, CV, or cover letter and gives you the kind of honest feedback your supervisor is too busy to give — specific, line-by-line, and grounded in what programmes actually look for.

Line-by-line annotations

Every weak sentence is flagged with a specific explanation and a suggested fix — not a vague "be more specific".

Scored across four dimensions

Specificity, structure, research fit, and clarity — so you know exactly what to work on first.

I have always been passionate about technology and want to use my skills to make an impact in the field of machine learning.

Too generic. Admissions readers see this exact sentence hundreds of times. Start with a specific moment, problem, or finding that shaped your direction.

My GPA of 3.8 demonstrates my academic ability and dedication to my studies.

Don't state your GPA in the SOP — it's already in your transcript. Use this space to show capability through what you built, discovered, or published.

I am particularly interested in the work being done at this university in the area of artificial intelligence.

Name the professor. Name the paper. "This university" signals you sent the same SOP to every school on your list.
