Essay topics? please help

<p>I'm writing my essay for U of I. The prompt is basically choose an extracurricular activity, work experience, or volunteer sercive project. explain why you started it, why you continued, and how you benefitted. I'm either going to
a.write about my job, which i hate, but still benefit from. truthfully told. </p>

<p>or</p>

<p>b. working at my schools radio station, which is the number one high school radio station in the country.</p>

<p>the thing with using b. though is that u of i requires two essays, and for the second one i think i'm gonna use radio. Idk, would it be a bad idea to use the same basic topic for each essay? thanks.</p>

<p>I think I would use different topics for different essays to show different facets of your personality. But that's just me. :)</p>

<p>^^^I agree with miraboo.</p>
