Kiddo’s target school accepts either SAO or Gateway. I thought we decide based on the essay prompts. As best I can tell, SAO only make those visible after paying. Can someone help us out with the current essay questions?
I haven’t paid the application fee and I have access to them. Not sure why it is like that for you.
Here are the SAO prompts:
Aside from books or articles assigned for school, what book(s), article(s), podcast(s), and or documentary(s) have you enjoyed in the past year and why?
Describe EITHER an academic/extracurricular achievement OR a challenge that had a meaningful impact on you. What did it take to accomplish the achievement or overcome the challenge and what did you learn from that experience?
Each person has unique characteristics that define who they are. Choose three words that best describe you as a person, and explain how they represent you.
All of them are 200-250 words.
Main Essays (choose one )
Explain an event or activity that has impacted your life and or your way of thinking.
Explain a time when you made a decision you regretted. Explain why you made that decision. How would you approach the same situation differently if you could now?
What is the best piece of advice you have ever received? From whom did you receive the advice and how did you apply it?
Describe a moment when you felt left out or that you did not fit in well with others. What did you learn about yourself and others? How did you overcome that situation?
What is your favorite quote from a movie, book or a line from a song or poem? Please name the movie, poem or song, and tell us what it means for you.
Write a 250-500 words response to the essay prompt you chose.
Take into consideration the fact that SAO schools share the same essay prompts, as opposed to Gateway, where most schools have different prompts.
Thank you!
