Hello, I am trying to write my common app essay for the first prompt, about my identify. Will college admission officers not be offended or treat my essay as minor class essay if i write about, “how my religion has shaped my life”. Thanks (i am applying a ivy college).
They won’t be offended at all - that could be a very powerful essay. Make sure, however, that your grammar and wording is appropriate/correct - I noticed a few issues with your post (“identify” instead of “identity”, “be offended” instead of "not be offended, “minor class essay” sounds quite awkward, “applying to” instead of “applying”). You had 4 errors in the span of 2 sentences, so make sure someone proofreads your essay. (I’m not considering your capitalization and punctuation errors since it’s the internet and people sometimes like to write casually.)
Thanks a lot, I noticed my mistakes you noticed when I post the question. I wrote them without proofreading, because I was in a hurry when I wrote them. Thanks once again
