Apply Texas Essay C help!

<p>I am applying to UT and A&M within a couple of weeks and only have one essay left to be prepared for every one of my applications! For essay C though I am just having a hard time brainstorming ideas. </p>

<p>The prompt is: Describe a setting in which you have collaborated or interacted with people whose experiences and/or beliefs differ from yours. Address your initial feelings, and how those feelings were or were not changed by this experience.</p>

<p>I can give you some information about me that may help a bit with ideas. I just can't seem to get what it is asking for/ what to put.</p>

<p>I play Varsity Tennis for my high school, and didn't necessarily get along too well with the coach, but possibly learned valuable lessons there. I am involved in engineering courses that involve group projects that take months that can have some controversy between partners. I hang out a lot with different kinds of friends. I volunteer a lot. I have a job in which I don't always get along with the coworkers. </p>

<p>Could I use something from one of those? I know I'm not being too much help, but I really am trying to figure out the best way to write this essay. Thanks!</p>

<p>I think the engineering courses topic would be distinct and give you an edge over the competition. </p>
