<p>My SAT score is a 2100 and my GPA is 3.7. I have two choices for my common app essay - being a sexually abused child, or growing up without my parents (they are separated and im not close to either of them). both experiences help me learn to be independent. which one should i write about?</p>
<p>I vote for growing up without your parents. Anything to do with sex or violence is probably not a good idea because it polarizes and inspires strong feelings in people…</p>
