<p>So I'm starting to think about what to write for my commonapp essay. And Ive come across this question. Is it better to write about improving yourself in some aspects or is it better to talk about incidents where you have impacted others?</p>
<p>It’s very important to show colleges what kind of person you are and how do you contribute to their community. Improving aspects is kinda like a common cliche, but that doesn’t mean you can’t write a good essay about it. Maybe you can combine the two.</p>
