The thing is that you have a very unique story. If you write it well, it can make you stand out and get a ticket in. But I also agree with what everyone else said, how it can be harmful to your chances. Especially if you don’t talk about who you are as a person. I recommend looking at “thecollegeessayguy” 's website and youtube videos. If you still think that it is a good topic, go for it. Just know there are going to be a lot of risks. Also do you know who your regional officers are? They are going to be the very first ones that look at your application. Sometimes knowing who they are is helpful. Good luck!
