I was surprised a few years back that you could actually buy personal statements for college application online. I saw quite a few resources for clinical psychology grad school personal statements. Also, yahoo answers was quite a surprise find as well. From the main yahoo page click on "answers" in the left menu and go to "education and reference" and then "homework help." http://answers.yahoo.com/dir/;_ylt=AkhGbBd_3AKwCX5siLxhc.i.xQt.;_ylv=3?link=list&sid=396545134 Sometimes you can find requests for answers in the social science/psychology section as well. I wouldn't be surprised if some day I have a question from a take home exam, quiz, or other assignment posted there for the community to answer for the student. It's sometimes frightening to peruse some of the other questions as well (e.g., "I'm pregnant and bleeding profusely, what should I do?).
