I read on CC a lot about how important the essays are and to be yourself in them so that you can communicate who you are to an admissions rep. I’ve been brainstorming a couple ideas and I keep coming back to one:
I want to talk about my involvement in/love for theater (especially musical theater) and singing
I thought this would be good for a couple of reasons:
It’s the biggest thing I’m involved in outside of school and I’ve really developed a passion for it over the past couple years. Also, since I’ll be applying as a STEM major, I figured it would be a great opportunity to communicate my interest in other things besides science, making me more well rounded.
Is this a good topic or is it too generic? It’s also not an “overcoming some life challenge” essay and I’ve seen a lot of those. Any advice? Thank you so much for reading and responding!
