<p>Great essay topics:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I went to India summer after sophomore year. There, I realized that I'm taking everything I have for granted. Kids there yearn to learn, but are not given the opportunity to do so. Here I am sitting in one of the top high schools in the nation, wasting my time. The revelation changed the way I perceive the world, and thus resulted in a sharp contrast in work ethic the next year, which is when I got a 4.2.</p></li>
<li><p>I run a YouTube channel that revolves around technology. It's a great, fun way to share my passion for technology with thousands of people around the world on a daily basis, while making revenue since I'm a YouTube Partner. I've been interested in technology throughout my whole life, and would like to further my knowledge at an established institution. </p></li>
</ol>
<p>What do you guys think about my chances? I'm so worried/nervous/sad. Advice would be appreciated.</p>
