<p>So I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out who to write about... as of the moment it's pretty narrowed down between John Lennon and Rosie the Riveter. I'd probably be able to pull off a good essay for either topic (even though I only have like a week before the scholarship deadline....) but which one would be the most original? Should I go for originality or the one I feel I'd have the most to write about?</p>
<p>Also, just out of curiosity, what are people writing about/have written about in the past?</p>
<p>I'm still working out who to write it about. Would the person necessarily have to have a huge affect on society and culture or could the subject be someone you know who exemplifies leadership. Also, how long should the additional supplemental questions be, such as the one asking about a world destination?</p>
<p>IMO, i think the exact topic of the leadership essay is left open for you decide, so whatever topic you feel that you'll write a convincing, interesting essay on (that is still generally on-topic), go for it. </p>
<p>I'm writing about Jacen Solo (from Star Wars books) and his relationship to Machiavelli's ideas on how to lead a country in The Prince. It's going to be weird, I know...but creative. I hope it works out okay... and I haven't even started the short answers yet. The clothing one is really stumping me; I don't want to seem superficial, and that question seems to want to weed those types of people out.</p>
<p>About the supplemental questions, I'd say anywhere between 100-250 words for the destinations and superhero questions, and 50-150 words for the clothing question.</p>
<p>yeah i used just about every single character available for the supplemental questions. They turned out to be slightly longer than what fa-la-la-lena said. </p>
<p>I highly doubt they expect for you to cite every source in bibliography MLA format or something like that. I just made sure to state the title of work/author (either in context or parentheses), so I'm not plagiarizing.</p>
