SMU College Essay. Please Help!

<p>The first question for my application is...
Tell us about a significant event, achievement or personal characteristic that will help us get to know you better.
I have no clue where to start. The only thing worth mentioning about me would be the fact that I moved across the country my Junior year of high school.
Is this a good topic to write about? I know that through this challenge I have learned a lot but I'm not sure if this is anything that will set me out from the crowd. I'm worried that this is just too basic of a topic. What I guess I'm asking is; is this topic something that not only fits the question but will help my chances at getting into SMU?</p>

<p>My next question is how long should this essay be? They say to write it in 250 words or more so should I just write until I get my point across? </p>

<p>Thank you so much for your help!! I'm completely lost in college applications and I'm in desperate need for any help I can get. Thanks again!!</p>
