Default Brake problem

My brake is sloppy. When I hit brake my steering wheel shakes. I bleed brake couple of times it gets batter but then it is sloppy again. So I went to local mechanic and he told me my master cylinder is bad. But I just want to make sure. What is symptoms if master cylinder is bad. Is there anything else that could be bad?
thanks guys

My car got 38K miles and I check my pad and rotors they looks ok.
Do you think it is because of Master cylinder. Also car takes longer time to stop.

if your rotors are warped u probably wont be able to "see" the warpage...u wont know till u get them spinnin on a lathe... as for the MC...i dont see how that could cause teh steering wheel to shake
