How hard is it to get into the Writer Pools?

[ethomson]

Hi,

I meet the minimum requirements (I've got 25 articles and a 63% acceptance rate) to apply to writer pools. My acceptance rate would be higher, if I hadn't resubmitted some articles without any changes by accident.

I want to apply to several writer pools, but I'm holding off until my acceptance rate improves, because I don't want to get rejected. Just wondering how hard it is to get into them? If you have the minimum requirements, and write a good application, is that enough? Or are they looking for a really high acceptance rate?

Also, how much content is in there, and are the rates good? Just curious.

Thanks!

I have found it worthwhile to be in them. I applied and it took quite a while to hear back, but I'm happy I stuck around.

Generally speaking, the requirements for the articles can be a bit more in-depth and require a fair amount of research, though not all of them are that way.
