What Should I Write My Essay About?Answered
Hey, so I am currently struggling to start my essay, and I have no idea how to start it or what to write about.I want to study law, if that changes anything. I have a few ideas, but I don't think they are all that great. my ideas include:
- The first time I went rowing with my team
- When my boat won 3rd place in my first competition/rigotta
- How I love when my dad teaches me math
- When I saw my family's foreign exchange student for the first time in the airport and what it was like having an older sister
- How I love seeing the stars at my grandparents' house and it makes me want to try to learn everything, and it makes me rethink my exsistance.
Please help I don't know what to do, and my deadline in December 1st!!
Thank you so much

The biggest deciding factor is what you want the admissions officers to know about you.
Your chance of acceptance
Your chancing factors

Thank you so much, when I read your post, I instantly had a few ideas that actually have ME in it. The best idea I had in that "thought explosion" was to write about when my dog got hit by a car and died (I was 8). It shows how I was suffering and what I did during those tough times. Thank you again!
