So do they read the Common App Essay?

I already wrote my Topic of Choice essay for the Common App. Here’s my issue: Stanford’s prompts encourage me to write about the same exact thing over again. I can’t think of how to answer their supplement questions without writing a similar essay to the one I wrote for the Common App. I assume they read both their supplements and the essay provided with the Common App, but which is more important to them?
