I would go easy on “passion”. It is becoming such a cliche word. Every applicant is supposed to have “passion”.

How about talking about what you are drawn to, repelled by, believe in, find yourself unable to accept etc.

Be interesting not just passionate. TV soap operas are all about “passion” . . .I mean applying to an elite univ. requires passion automatically. Hopefully it does not have to be filled with “drama”!~
