Another question about a college essay

<p>Ok guys, I know that Ive posted this before but I only got one message</p>

<p>On my MIT app, I first chose to write a essay on my experiences the last time when my father went to prison (again lol) After finishing it, I however thought it would be too personal so I opted to write a very much so less personal essay about my experiences in a summer basketball league.</p>

<p>Was this a good decision????</p>

<p>Personally, I would choose the personal one :) Most people are too afraid to really show themselves in the essays, and yours will stand out.</p>

<p>I second tkm.</p>

<p>why do you not want to write a personal one when all of us here are trying to get personal? :confused:</p>

<p>Yeah I know but sometimes I worry it would seem kind of cliche
but then again what essay today isnt cliche :P</p>

<p>thx for the input guys</p>

<p>Welcome.</p>

<p>(And yes, originality is hard to come across nowadays. Why else are most of today's movies taken from books and comics?)</p>

<p>Thanks guys I just changed my essay back to the first one.
I actually feel alot better now. Im glad you guys convinced me to change it back :)</p>
