<p>Does anyone know what the essay prompts are for the application? I can only see the first one, the biographical essay prompt. Then there's like 3 more: short answers, essay #1, and essay #2. I just want to know what I'd have to write about so that I can decide if I actually want to put in the time to write them for QB. Because I've actually never experienced "socioeconomic challenges" despite my family's low-income, I don't know if I should use QB or if I should just spend all my time with the commonapp and supplemental essays and apply as a regular applicant.</p>
<ol>
<li>Describe an experience that you have had or a concept you have learned about that intellectually excites you. When answering this question, you may want to consider some of the following questions: WHy does this topic excite you? How does it impact the way you or others experience the world? What questtions do you continue to ponder about it? 500 word limit"</li>
<li>“If you could change one thing about your community, what would it be and why? 500 word limit”</li>
<li>“A range of academic interests, personal perspectives, and life experiences adds much to the educational mix. Given your background, please describe an experience that illustrates what you would bring to the diversity in a college community, or an encounter thhat demonstrated the importance of diversity to you. 500 word limit”</li>
</ol>
<p>Then there is Essay #2 with only one prompt:</p>
<p>“Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you. 500 word limit”</p>
<p>And you don’t have to write the whole essay, you just have to put something in the essay field to move on to the next page (and there will be a warning if it’s less than 100 words), but until you hit “submit,” you can go back and add to/edit your essays. So the essay doesn’t really have to be “done” to go on to the next page.</p>
<p>thanks a lot! that last bit, especially, since i was afraid to move onto the next page without having written the essay (which is why i asked about the prompts…)</p>
