<p>The question for the scholarship is " explain how you best exemplify character in the face of adversity".
How am I supposed to talk about myself without sounding arrogant and insincere; and if all applicants are going to be writing along the same lines, how do I distinguish myself???
Thanks for your help</p>
In a scholarship essay, how do u emphasize your characteristics without sounding cocky and insincere
<p>I think the distinction will come out by what struggle or challenge you choose to write about.
Pick something that means something to you, no matter how insignificant it might seem to others.</p>
