College Essays
1

<p>I've written two essays.</p>

<p>One is about travelling to one of the poorest countriesin the world and my experieinces there, especially because it was right after a natural disaster.</p>

<p>my second essay is about winning homecoming prince, being inspired to run for leadership, attending a leadership camp and being on leadership at the school.</p>

<p>both are pretty cliche, but which one do you think would be better? should i do a new essay?</p>

<p>I think number 1 is more unique, the country is Burma. While number 2 is more common, but it makes me look pretty good.</p>

<p>any thoughts / suggestions?? please help!! haha </p>

<p>this is for common app.</p>

<p>huh. you should probalby write about the one closer to ur heart. think about it for a day or two, and see which one you keep coming back to. does the word leadership keep flashing on in ur head? or does traveling ring ur essay writing bells? I say the second one is more personal while the first one doesn’t really relate to u. what i’m sayingj is, you might’ve actually learned somethign at leadershiop camp while in Burma all yhou could write is a cliched essay about how it changed ur entire perspective while all it actrually did was entertain u. but I aint saying oen tpic’s better than the other. ultimately it’s up to u. good luck!!!</p>
