Common App Short Answer Topic

<p>I am having some trouble coming up with a topic to write about for the short answer. My main essay already talks about work and my two sports (swimming and water polo), so I am not sure if it would be ok to go into those again. I think it might be too repetitive. I was thinking about talking about a National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine that I attended during one of my summers. Would this be ok or no? Anyone have any other ideas?</p>

<p>Go for the National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine topic. You want the adcoms to know everything about you. Since you’re already writing an essay on your work/sports, there’s no need to repeat the topic.</p>

<p>Ok thanks for the input I figured that would be the case but I just wanted to make sure.</p>

<p>Your main essay covers work, water polo, AND swimming? That’s a pretty big topic…</p>

<p>NYLF sounds fine.</p>
