<p>Whatever that will be written in my essay for Columbia is 100% true and happened 2 years ago.
I am going to write about how my borther was cured of autism during our family trip to India. On the trip we visited the Sai Baba(Hindu God) temple and after going there my brother has shown EXTRAORDINARY improvement.
Would this be a good essay topic to write about?</p>
<p>First of all, what’s the essay prompt?</p>
<p>Columbia’s essay prompt:On a separate sheet of paper, write an essay which conveys to the reader a sense of who you are. Possible topics may include, but are not limited to,
experiences which have shaped your life, the circumstances of your upbringing, your most meaningful intellectual achievement, the way you see the world—the
people in it, events great and small, everyday life—or any personal theme which appeals to your imagination.</p>
<p>remember, the focus has to be on you.</p>
<p>Topic is not as relevant as your ability:

<p>This essay will primarily reflect my responses and reactions to the experience.</p>
<p>As long as you relate it more toward yourself than your brother.</p>
