<p>Does anyone know if for the five works section of the University of Arkansas scholarship application, if it would look better to have books with literary merit? Or can I just use any books that I have enjoyed reading?</p>
<p>For mine, I used a bit of both. I chose Hamlet, The Invisible Man, Lord of the Flies, and two others I can’t recall. Obviously the ones I chose had substantiated literary merit, but don’t base it all on that. They want to know what appealed to <em>you</em> and what sets <em>you</em> apart. They don’t want a carbon copy of what everyone else is going to say. :)</p>
<p>Okay, thanks! Cause none of mine have literary merit! But a couple were nonfiction books about topics I’m interested in majoring in, so hopefully that will help.</p>
