<p>What should i write about in my essay? I hear from some that you should write about something you are very involved in, but from others, something that is completely out of the ordinary and something that has NOT already appeared on the application. Any help would be appreciated.</p>
<p>just be you. i know you have heard this many times, but the essence of quality college essays are the "you". write about an insignificant experience that happened in your life that shines light on your personality. make it a "slice-of-life" essay.</p>
<p>I agree with the post above. However, when you write your supplemental essay for Rice, remember to explain how you can contribute to the Rice community, rather than only writing how you could benefit from the school.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
