I'll answer as a professor at a university: Stick to the script. I have 30 papers to grade!

Going off script is, IMO, just proof you couldn't get your point across in the standard format so you ditched it. To me it isn't a demonstration of strength, it is a demonstration of weakness. If you want to be original, be original within the constraints of the system.

Once you demonstrate you can get a series of A's using the script, then I would put in the effort to read an off-script essay. Before then: Expect B's or C's. Prove your competence at walking before you try to convince me you can dance.
