<p>I'm wondering whether the extended essay is supposed to shed any light on my character, or whether it's supposed to show off my creativity and how I think. As my essay is (I've invented a past for a present), it doesn't reveal much at all about me, but it is quite creative. Should I shoot for a balance, or choose another topic that would reveal more about me?</p>
<p>The creativity/how you think seems more important for this essay. Your teacher/counselor recommendations can detail your character.</p>
<p>Thank you, sa0209. This seems to be the consensus. I would appreciate some more feedback, though.</p>
<p>Creativity says a lot about your character if you ask me.</p>
