<p>Is it okay to list out my favorite things for the optional essay?
I both have too many favorite things and feel like my other essays are sufficient enough.</p>
<p>I wrote a narrative for that essay, and my floormate wrote a list, so the format of the favourite things essay is not going to make or break your application. Don’t worry about it too much; write something interesting and you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>People with lists got in. People with short description in list form got in. People with narratives got in (I wrote a narrative about my favorite thing). People who didn’t write it got in. Don’t overanalyze it.</p>
