Essay Question

<p>Hi!
I need help in determining if my question is appropriate for one of UMCP's essay options: </p>

<p>Write your own question and respond to it. Please be sure to tell us why you think this essay represents you well.</p>

<p>I am writing about how I was strongly influenced by someone in my life. I have written about how certain events and experiences shaped me positively as the person I am today.
Would an essay about this "represent me well" ? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>i think it could represent you well! my advice would just be to make sure you are writing about yourself, for example say you were writing about your grandparent, colleges want to hear about YOU not just your grandparent</p>

<p>ok! thanks :)</p>
