MIT Essay Question Clarification!

<p>Describe the world you come from; for example, your family, clubs, school, community, city, or town. How has that world shaped your dreams and aspirations?(*) (200-250 words)</p>

<p>Does that mean that my essay has to be about "family, clubs, school, community, city, or town"??? </p>

<p>Or could my essay be about when I went to foreign country for a few weeks?? Or even something similar that is not specifically "family, clubs, school, community, city, or town"?</p>

<p>Opinions??</p>
