My own prompt...does it work?

<p>I used a quote for my own uncommon prompt but didn't actually make up a "prompt" to go with it...can someone glance at it and tell me if it works? I'll PM you my entire essay but you don't have to critique it, I just want to know if it works, or if I have to write some sort of extended prompt. And lol cheaters don't bother, you won't really be able to copy this</p>

<p>it works lol i'm not sure about what ur talkinga bout those u used a quote for ur own uncommon prompt but didn't mkae up a "prompt"....hmmm</p>

<p>It sounds like your prompt is similar to the Miles Davis quote option, which is not posed in the form of a question. I say don't worry about it; the adcom would never have created question #1 if they didn't expect applicants to emulate its style.</p>

<p>I wouldn't write an extended prompt. Obviously I haven't seen the essay (I'll look at it for you if you want, obviously it's too late but...), but in general I'd say if the connection between the essay and the prompt works, it'll be apparent, and if it doesn't work, an extended explanation won't help...</p>

<p>Haha!
The first prompt was brilliant, as you could write anything and still be following the prompt. Well, almost anything, because writing about the other prompts would have meant writing about something that IS there :). So why bother with other prompts ? :) (don't bother answering this question, please).</p>
