<p>Also, as a Questbridge finalist I have forwarded my application to USC. Although my essays are not the greatest, my application does include much more information compared to if I used Common App. Should I revoke my QB application and submit a Common App app with edited essays? </p>

<p>Essays (3 in total, last one part of Questbridge application for USC):
-Living in a single-parent, low-income household and how my experiences have led me to become self-motivated.
-How losing my position on ASB as a sophomore led to my realization of an arrogant attitude and how I addressed the issue.</p>
<h2>-How having an African American adopted-sister has developed my awareness of diversity in the world.</h2>
