Which of these 3 topics do you think I should go with?

College Essays

<p>I have 3 topics for my essay and im trying to figure out which of the 3 to go with. I think they range from a standard college essay, a slightly mundane essay, and then the risky, bizarre, go big or go home college essay</p>

<p>1) Im a twin and I originally was going to construct an essay about how I originally resented being a twin, to eventually growing to appreciate and understand it.</p>

<p>2) I kind of wanted to write an essay with the overarching foundation of riding a school bus. Ive ridden the school bus every day since I was in Kindergarten all the way through this 12th grade, and I wanted to write about how each year a different "me" gets on the bus.</p>

<p>OR </p>

<p>A stream of consciousness essay that takes place on my early morning ride to school</p>

<p>3) My ridiculous and probably stupid sounding essay drew inspiration from the visionary who just wrote ridiculous statements for his or her "what makes you interesting" essay. Some moments I think its brilliant and others I think its terrible. I was thinking of writing my essay about someone elses life, a fictional character, analyzing the persons life as if it were my own, and then at the end revealing </p>

<p>"Who Am I? Im The Batman"</p>

<p>Obviously 3 very different essays, your help would be greatly appreciated</p>

<p>All of those topics sound unique! I think the twin thing is interesting because most people generally don’t have a twin, so at least it won’t be redundant. The school bus essay also has potential. But really, with both of these, it depends how you deliver it and what your overall point would be (you didn’t mention that, so I can’t really tell you which would be better to write about). A unique topic is half the battle (and with either 1 or 2, you have that), but really it’s the way you express yourself that shows the college who you are and basically…why you’re awesome.</p>

<p>I didn’t really understand what you meant by topic 3…I think the first two would lead in a better direction.</p>

<p>It is not the topic, it is what you do with the topic.</p>

<p>The best topic allows you to write your most personal, detailed/specific and revealing essay.</p>

<p>Strangers on the internet cannot know which topic will allow you to write that essay.</p>
