<p>If you select "Topic of your choice," would you have to write your own prompt on the essay document that you're submitting?</p>
<p>Can you just submit an "topic choice" essay w/o a prompt?</p>
<p>I was wondering that too..
and earlier someone had asked if a "Things about me" [quirks etc] would be an ok topic..with a better title, of course.
Or is expanding on one unqiue thing about you better?</p>
<p>I think that writing on one of the given topics make you look like a stronger writer because it shows that you can take one of those topics and make it something amazing. </p>
<p>But that's just my opinion. :)</p>
<p>The thing about my essay is that it doesn't have a solid "this is what I gained from the experience", rather it's a glimpse into my life in a creatively (I think) written way....</p>
<p>So would the prompt just be: Give us a glimpse into what makes you special?</p>
<p>hahha...it sounds weird to me I guess. =/</p>
<p>^^ That's something like what mine is..its really a vague topic, not I did this and from that became this..or whatever.</p>
<p>never mind- I talked to a Cornell Admissions director and he said that there's no need for writing your own prompt.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help!</p>
