Here are five more guidelines that will reduce the stress of finding that perfect essay topic.
-
Write something only you can write.
-
Avoid politics unless it is critical to understanding who you are and what you want to accomplish in college.
-
Don’t brag. The point of your essay should not be how great you are but what you have learned from your experiences and how that might impact you moving forward.
-
At the same time, make sure the focus of your topic remains on you.
-
As much as possible, you should feel personal enthusiasm about the topic; it should be something you want to write.
