Things I would like you to know.. Appropriate?

College Essays
1

<p>I’ve started writing many essays about some of my experiences, one of them is pretty decent but I’m still not satisfied with it. I want to write a new one.</p>

<p>Do you think it would be appropriate to write an essay titled “Things I would like you to know about me” and write about some of my idiosyncrasies and thoughts about specific things that would show how I see the world and think?</p>

<p>I think I can write a decent essay about this, but I’m not sure if the topic is appropriate for a college applicaton. What do you think?</p>

<p>I think any essay will do as long as:
(1) it reveals something about you that your application does not;
(2) answers ‘yes’ to the question: ‘Am I the only one who could honestly write this essay?’</p>

<p>To add to the post above me, it will work as long as the essay is coherent, and doesn’t just read like a list of unrelated things. (And I would choose a different, more creative title.)</p>

<p>However, I think it would be best to choose just ONE of the idiosyncracies/thoughts and expand on that. Otherwise, you may not be going into enough detail.</p>
