<p>What are some examples of "unique" essay topics that have gotten you into a top college? I am trying to start on my essay but am having writer's block. Oh, and it would be helpful if you can tell me which school(s) you applied to when you wrote the essay. Any help would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Rather than topics, why don’t you spend some time self-reflecting? What’s important to you? what kinda story would you tell your kids about something significant that happened to you as a teenager? Is there something you regretted and corrected? What’s a profound memory you have with a family member? Topic choice isn’t the issue. Depth usually is.</p>
