CommonApp EssayAnswered
This might seem to be a very dumb question to ask. Please bear with me. Do we have to fill out all the prompts on the CommonApp? I apologize for asking such a basic question, but I am genuinely confused.

There are no dumb questions here! You only have to respond to one CommonApp essay prompt. Some schools may then ask you to respond to supplemental essays, which are different from the CommonApp prompts. Hope this helps!

In principle, no, but just in case, it is better to fill in everything. You will spend a little more time but will no longer return to this issue.
