UC PERSONAL INSIGHT QUESTION 8: SHOULD I WRITE ABOUT THIS? IF SO, HOW?

Prompt: What is the one thing that you think sets you apart from other candidates applying to the University of California?

So I have a huge business background, and one of my ventures is the following:

I ran a Peer Tutoring app in my high school to help students connect, and I ended up merging my company with the school districts tutoring program, so I am the largest student employer in the tri-valley (Pleasanton-Livermore). My question is should I write about that? I already wrote about my other experiences and business stuff. Or is this essay question relating to more “weird” hobbies, things that don’t relate to one’s major?

P.S. I do not profit from my tutoring business, students are paid right after their sessions by parents and/or students.

I’d say that you should only talk about it if you don’t already include that in the Work Experience section or if it really reveals something that they wouldn’t be able to infer about you from the rest of your application.
