<p>Quick question.</p>
<p>I have written an essay on overcoming adversity. I was wondering- under which CommonApp topic would it fall under?</p>
<p>1) Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you.</p>
<p>2) Discuss some issue of personal, local, national, or international concern and its importance to you.</p>
<p>3) Indicate a person who has had a significant influence on you, and describe that influence.</p>
<p>4) Describe a character in fiction, a historical figure, or a creative work (as in art, music, science, etc.) that has had an influence on you, and explain that influence.</p>
<p>5) A range of academic interests, personal perspectives, and life experiences adds much to the educational mix. Given your personal background, describe an experience that illustrates what you would bring to the diversity in a college community, or an encounter that demonstrated the importance of diversity to you.</p>
<p>6) Topic of your choice.</p>
<p>IMO, either 1,5, or 6.</p>
