<p>hey i plan on writing about the first of my two evacuations from an asian country...does this sound like an ok topic?</p>
<p>sounds ok, but make sure you meet the following requirements:</p>
<p>1) it is personal
2) it presents a challenge, goal, hardship, etc.
3) it shows your success in face of that problem
4) you talk about how it changed your life</p>
<p>at least that's what i consider a good long college essay should have.</p>
<p>wow fast reply! thanks for the response!</p>
<p>Yeah, I wrote a "this man changed my life" essay. I don't know...I sometimes wonder if the admissions counselors are just gonna look at it and start giggling or something. You have to make sure its not cliche.</p>
<p>hahaha yeah...they giggle and toss it in reject pile lol! hopefully not :P...haha so anyway i talked about graphic design and coping with evac...hopefully random enough for them</p>
