<p>I have a pretty original essay that I feel fits one of the past prompts well. Is it acceptable to chose Option 5 and use one of their past prompts?</p>
<p>i think it's ok.......</p>
<p>I don't really need an answer anymore as I thought of a (somewhat) clever prompt, but some people might still want to know.</p>
<p>hi, how did you find a previous year's prompt? I am sending an essay of my own topic, and if it fits a previous prompt that would be cool ...</p>
<p>also, which prompt are u using?</p>
<p>When I applied last year, I responded with a prompt of my own by reusing a prompt from the year prior -- and simply rewording it a bit. It obviously was the same prompt, though, and I decided to be both funny and creative by posing it in a slightly different way.</p>
