Will they recognize that you used the same essay topic from another university’s application? One of mine doesn’t address a specific topic, I can sort of make any title for it. I’m thinking about changing my essay for some colleges. MY common app essay is good, but not the best. I can maybe copy and paste some of the stuff from it to make a hybrid with my other essay. What do you guys think?
