Hello! I am currently brainstorming some ideas for my college essay, and I am stuck between two topics. I don’t know which one colleges would like better, as they are both very different from each other.
Topic #1) My identity as an Asian-American and how my background has inspired me to pursue Korean as my major in college and my dreams of becoming an immigration lawyer
Topic #2) My upward grade trend: Freshman year 3.43, Sophomore year 3.57, Junior year 4.36 - discussing my growth as an individual and obstacles I faced and how I overcame them (illness that kept me from going to school for 4 months)

Thank you for your help!
