Some essays specifically ask for “ideas” and/or “aspirations” (i.e. Cornell engineering supplemental essay), so I was wondering whether it’s a good idea to talk about one of my related business ideas here. It’s a pretty big idea so I didn’t do anything with it but I’m wondering if it’s still worth mentioning. (it’s not the only thing I’d be talking about, ofc)
Is there anything in your activities list that might suggest it’s something you could realistically work towards? Many people can come up with ideas that go nowhere. I think the purpose of this essay is to see what ideas you have and how you’ve worked toward making them a reality.
@ivygrad0001 I have plans ready for pitching, they’ve never been used bc I don’t have access to pitching ideas etc (I tried reaching out to few sponsors but they’ve just written back that I should continue to look for other sponsors). It’s not workable with the level of knowledge I have anyway, it’s something I’m thinking of doing after college.
It is very hard to offer advice on essay topics without reading a draft of the essay.
