I have been working on my common app essay for a while, ignoring the word limit. But after considering the word limit (650 words) I noticed that I could only include one experience for my prompt - something that is extremely difficult for me, seeing as the interest I am writing about is something I have explored deeply and am very passionate about.
The prompt I chose: Some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story.
I have had two research experiences, one with plant evolutionary biology (which went on for a very long time) and the other with cellular biology, and many classes that have contributed to my interests, but I cannot obviously fit everything into a 650 word essay. How do I choose one subject to write about?
Thank you!
