In light of this super hectic time in preparing college applications, essays, and recommendations, I thought it’d be fun to take a break and discuss some weird or quirky essay prompts you’ve responded to, or have to respond to.

One writing supplement I’m currently working on asks, “If you were to write the story of your life until now, what would you title it and why?”

What outside-the-box essay prompts have you encountered? Did you enjoy them more than the standard, or did you find them to be more difficult?
