I have a couple of ideas in mind for the “describe a problem you would like solved” and the “transition from childhood to adulthood” essays but I am not sure if they are worthwhile to write about.

Please PM me if you can help me narrow down my list of ideas so that I have a clear-cut goal for my completed essay.

Thank you

My son is also working on his essay using prompt #4. A college counselor recently told him that she thinks this one is quite difficult due to the lack of life experiences for you high school seniors. He found a way to write about an ethical dilemma he was faced with during a summer job. I really like it. Best of luck!!
