<p>Ok, as some of you might already know, Prompt #1 instructs: “Describe the world you come from - for example, your family, community or school - and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.” </p>
<p>I have two quick questions: </p>
<li>First of all, can I talk about how more than one of these elements has shaped who I am ? Or should I take the question literally and try and focus on one ?<br></li>
<li>I started mine, but it’s more of a progressive narrative, meaning I start by describing how I was as a child and how my feelings and perspective changed as I grew older? Would this be okay, or should I state my “message” right off the bat and go from there? </li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks, and hopefully this helps others who might be wondering the same thing</p>
