Unusual topic choice for scholarship; Need opinions?

Hello.

So there’s a scholarship prompt that is along the lines of “If you could get one chance to re-do one event in life, what would it be and why?”

I have an idea in mind…but its related to a traumatic event and I’m deciding about writing about it. I wouldn’t be giving too many details since I only get around 300ish words. I started doing some pre-writing for it and made an outline of sort for myself…but I was thinking about my topic choice and getting second doubts.

Previous past winners have written about traumatic events, but I just need some opinions on this. I’m willing to give more details in a DM if people are interested in helping out.

Actually, I sorta resolved my conflict about this so people don’t need to comment. I will take offers for reviewing the essay I eventually write…Can someone lock this thread?
