UCLA Essay

<p>For the UCLA Prompt:</p>

<p>Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.</p>

<p>I compared how climbing mountains has taught me how to overcome problems when I was given the opportunity to lead a club, would this be unique enough to let me stand out from the crowd? Or do i need something more touching, like a real struggle?</p>

<p>You don’t need a unique topic. You just need to write well (and be honest…don’t say something affected you in ways it didn’t just because you think it’s what they want to hear), because that’s rare enough.</p>
