<p>I am seriously struggling with the difference between these two essays. The biographical essay asks to discuss various factors and challenges you've faced and how it shaped you. Essay #2 asks about a significant experience/ethical dilemma/etc and how THAT changed you. </p>

<p>*So, is the biographical essay more of an 'overview' of all these factors and challenges, whiel Essay #2 focuses solely on ONE of these challenges? </p>

<p>Please help!!! </p>

<p>Thank you :)</p>

<p>I was thinking the same thing at first. Just treat it as you said, one is an overview, the other is a specific event. Just try to not have overlap, which is probably going to be a bit tough but shouldn’t be too big of a problem. :P</p>

<p>I should really start those essays. Good thing I already have an idea and an outline. haha.</p>
