Suggestions, ideas, and recommendations on UW-M and UM-TC essay topics!

<p>Hi, thanks for helping me! I am trying to start my application essays for two of my favorite schools- UW-Madison and UM-Twin Cities. </p>

<p>I've viewed their prompts and i feel like they are really hard to start with..they are broad and big topics, are there any suggestions on how I should write them??? Are there things I should really mention in each one of them? What should I focus on?
Any kind of answers are really really really helpful for me! So thank you again everyone =)</p>
