I’m assuming this issue is already resolved at this point but I would like to add that there is absolutely no harm in making a rough draft.

I disagree with most people on this thread in the sense that I have seen a number of “tragic” essay topics that turned out to be absolutely phenomenal. They not only spoke a lot about the student “as a person” but also defined who they are today.

My admission into Cornell University, for example, came not from my SATs (not to competitive for ivys- just barely reached a 2100) or extra curriculars. Rather it was due to my stellar essays that outlined an extremely tragic incident that shaped my life today. I felt passionate about the topic and therefore the essay came out much better than I expected and I consequently received admission into the college of my dreams.

To OP, all I have to say is DO NOT be discouraged from writing what you want to. Definitely try it out and see what happens! You never know - this essay could just be the difference between acceptance and rejection!!
