| clarification on Common App Prompt #4 yes, it is 3AM PST and im on cc. lol
4. Describe a character in fiction, a historical figure, or a creative work (as in art, music, science, etc.) that has had an influence on you, and explain that influence.
I'm not quite clear if the phrase "or a creative work (as in art, music, science, etc.) that has..." can be interpreted as allowing me to ONLY write about a fictional character or will writing about an actual work (i.e. Catcher in the Rye) still be within the constrains of the prompt.
also, i was wondering how some of the people that chose this prompt are planning to approach it. |
