<p>Well, without a prompt, it'd be pretty obvious you're recycling essays from your other colleges. Since essays are the most important aspect of Chicago's application, you may want to look liek you put some effort into applying to the school.</p>

<p>I have an essay that I'm using for other schools that is VERY Chicago... it's all about how my friends like to blend learning/fun and make bad math/physics puns, etc. If I were to make up an interesting/creative prompt, would that make up for a slightly less creative essay? Or should I somehow make it work for the language one? It'd be a slight stretch, but it could fit.</p>
