I’m planning on answering the first prompt. i have an idea of what i would like to include in my personal statement, like synesthesia and music, and I believe I can make a connection between the two, but I’m afraid if i were to take this route, the message I would convey would be too muddled and confusing. How can I avoid this?
Write it, then get your teachers to read over it. It’s really about how you deliver the essay that determines whether or not it makes sense. Keep in mind that you have to connect synesthesia and music to YOURSELF, not just the two by themselves.
I got 3 of my teachers reading over my common app essay at the moment, lol.
