How can I answer this question? It seems so broad yet so demanding. Sure, I am of a religion and a specific denomination too, and I have a very rich culture, but what should I write on? I feel like this’ll hurt me either I did it or not.
This question is optional. Answer it if you think it will add to your application.
I do have very special culture and identity. I just don’t know what to write about (what is special about them, what is allowed or restrained, how I was grown/raised, etc.). I don’t know.
How has your culture contributed to to the person you are today?
To add onto this question. What if this is our topic for our common app. Will it be worth it to be it for this as well?
Of course, since MIT doesn’t accept the common app, there is no other way that MIT will see that essay.
ok just making sure thanks!
