Another application question... help?

“Which famous person would you like to spend the afternoon with?”

Not totally sure how I should answer this question without sounding like I’m lying or way too non-academic. (sorry for the poor word choice). I doubt it would come off well if I said Zac Efron, but would they be like, “yeah, right” if I said Michelle Obama or something. Suggestions?

If the famous person can be dead, pick an important historical figure such as George Washington or Aristotle.

Why would it be bad if you picked Zac Efron? @leprecocoa

Yeah, don’t fake answers to questions. You want schools that want you, not this sophisticated, pimped up person that you pretend to be on applications.

I said Harriet Beecher Stowe but mine asked about a deceased person

Think about your explanation for WHY you chose that person. He/She doesn’t necessarily have to be someone you absolutely love or admire.
