College Essay Help, Please?
Favorite Answer
You can start off by asking these questions:
“If the truth doesn’t save us, what does that say about us?”
“Where is there dignity unless there is honesty?”
College admissions people are looking for unique students who are going to bring something of value to the college or university setting…not “typical teenagers.”
Since you are obviously not a “typical teenager” write about something that makes you different…but not about yourself. Don’t write “I am … I do … I like” but rather pick a topic you are passionate about that and write about that.
Show your intelligence, creativity and uniqueness…stay away from “typical” anything.
I like your topic and approach though – you don’t know what it is like to be this fantasy typical teen (fer sure, lets go to the mall) any more than you know what it is like to be . . . . . .. .
College is in the ignorance curing business (stupid goes clear to the bone and there is no cure for willful ignorance, which we call bigotry) so go with it, but make sure to own your perspective on ‘typical’.
