OP,

It's weird you have posted this, even though I agree it's an eye-roller of a topic for a college essay.

What kind of adult mocks children like this?


Probably the same kind that mock an actor's dyslexia.

Might be a stereotypical TEENAGE girl but you are a stereotypical competitive parent. Why should you care what she wrote her essay on?

I wrote about how stepping off the edge of a cliff when repelling for the first time (even though I was deathly afraid of heights) helped teach me about conquering fears and the life lessons it taught me. Sorry it was a long time ago and I can't remember exactly how I phrased it. Had a couple of people write on my acceptance letter how much they loved my essay!


I hope you spelled rappelling correctly in you essay

Well who knows, any silly topic can be a good essay if well written.

You can write about anything. Some threads on College Confidential are about what kids wrote about and they are all over the place.
