OK, for the 2nd UC Essay, I need advice on what to write. Here’s the prompt:

“Tell us about a personal quality, accomplishment, contribution, or experience that is important to you. What about this quality of accomplishment makes you proud and how does it relate to the person you are.”

I plan to write about either 1) my motivation and how is it part of me now or 2) the experience that had a significant positive impact on my motivation and how has it changed me.

Which one do you recommend?
