College Common App essay question

<p>Is it bad for my common app essay to be oriented towards my major that i am interested in? For example, it talks about how i became interested in becoming a doctor. Is this bad? thank you.</p>

<p>No that’s good</p>

<p>thanks :slight_smile: i just wasnt sure because i attended a college meeting today and they were talking about a good essay about a girl who was only able to see her father a few hours a day due to his work schedule and how this affected her life. I was just afraid by making my essay oriented towards my career doesnt really show my personality.</p>

<p>thanks for the reply</p>
