When I was in the 10th grade, I was suspended for one school day. I wrote about the suspension in the disciple section of the Common App. I was also planning on writing about the suspension/the 10th grade in general as my response to the “My greatest failure/challenge” essay prompt. Since I am already writing about the suspension in the disciple section, should I choose another topic for the regular essay section?
Why would you choose to highlight the low point of your high school career in order to convince a college to admit you??
This simply makes no sense to me.
I agree with @bjkmom and also I think it’ll be a little redundant.
