<p>Hm. I’m not a fan of the new first question. I’m glad I’m not applying this year.</p>
<p>Anywho, like TheRageKage12 said, be different. Separate yourself. Don’t write about something 100s of other applicants will write about. Show why you are unique, special, and an asset to the school. How will you contribute? And when addressing either prompt, be specific. Show how you are very involved in one thing, rather than mention your involvement in many activities. I’ll also reiterate, do not include details that are redundant with regard to the rest of the application, like grades or listing awards, activities, etc. Not that you can’t write IN DEPTH about a single activity listed elsewhere in the app. That’s what I did for one of my prompts, I believe.</p>
