if it’s something you love, that you’ve poured a lot of your soul into, then i definitely think it’s a good topic to write about.

as long as your writing is sincere, and it is evident that you are passionate about that extra curricular, and if it shows a lot of positive aspects of your personality and ideals, go for it.

my favorite college essay i’ve written this year was about running…by writing about cross country and the like, i communicated qualities like dedication, drive, work ethic, team spirit, etc. plus the essay showed that i’m not concerned about society’s standards, that my definition of success doesn’t necessarily involve trophies or money or fame…

anyway, you get the point. i say go for it.

the part i’m having trouble w/ is the “Why Brown?/academic interest essay”… i don’t know what to put in such a small amount of space or how to format it. could you pm me yours so i could get an idea of what to do?

thanks and good luck to you!!
