For the common app, is it alright for me to write a simple narrative about something that I did that indirectly shows qualities but subtly? It’s just one story that goes into detail.
As opposed to a complex abstract essay that shows a bunch of sides of me…I tried to put a lot of stuff about me in that but I’m afraid it’s not flowing because of that.
yall reply please… ::))
“is it alright for me to write a simple narrative about something that I did that indirectly shows qualities but subtly?”
Yes… as long as that “something that you did” is rated PG and not on your high school’s list of no-nos. 
Also, remember the old adage “show, don’t tell”.
@MWolf Im just hoping they will catch my “show references” and infer stuff from what I did lol. Since I am not explicitly stating my qualities
