<p>Dear Readers, </p>
<p>My friend has just applied to this one college, that asks in one of its short answers,
"If you were picking students for a freshman class, what question would you ask, that isn't asked in our supplements or common application?"</p>
<p>He said: "if you could have one superpower, what would that be?"</p>
<p>He wants to know thumbs up or thumbs down. He already applied, but other colleges are asking similar questions, and he wants to know if this would work. </p>
<p>any comments?</p>
