<p>does this mean we can only talk about academic experiences, or is it okay if we mention another experience in our life that caused us to choose a certain major</p>
<p>I was confused on the same thing.
I’m majoring in Nueroscience with a minor in Psych.
So I basically put how ever since I was a child, I questions people’s behaviors and actions.
I don’t know…</p>
<p>It really depends on your major. :)</p>
<p>It can be about any experience. I think they were just making suggestions.</p>
<p>Part of answering our essay questions is how one interprets the essay prompts. You can answer the question in any way you choose. We like to leave the essay questions a bit vague and open-ended to allow applicants to take their answers in a number of different directions. That also leads to a variety of answers for the Admissions committee to review.</p>
