I’m a high school senior who has good stats and am going to apply to some schools such as Cornell, Northwestern, and University of Rochester. I’ve been thinking about writing my common app essay on my juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (I have three different forms of arthritis and have had them since I was younger) and how it has helped to mold me into who I am today through making me a highly motivated and studious person with really good work ethic even through all of the emotional and physical obstacles that come with arthritis at an early age.

Do you guys think this would make a for a really good and unique essay that might help me get into somewhat selective colleges? Also, if you have any tips for me, then please leave them! Thanks a lot!
