My prompt is "What are the Reasons for your Interests?" I just haven't gotten to it yet. I think my first line may be "I am pretty easy to influence, as I have various interests. I feel, though, that some things have had a stronger effect on me in the long run."]]> 2016-09-27 13:40:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126656645 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126656686 Common App Prompt: some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so important to them they feel their application would not be complete without it.

I'm talking about computers and what they have done for me since being a child up until now. 

When I was young, around the age of three years old, my family got our first “family computer.” Of course, much like any computer back then, it was nothing fancy and was not fast compared to the standards of today's technology.

I'm discussing how I've entered the first few stages of adulthood. Jobs, cars, bills. I talk about how these things have made me become more responsible. I'm trying to stress how I'm still learning and how I'm not the perfect human yet. Is that a good idea? I don't think it's a good idea to play it off like I'm the most responsible, grown up teenager on Earth. ]]> 2016-09-27 13:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126657975 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126658130 I am talking about my trip to Costa Rica and how my experiences and changed viewpoints can add to MSU's atmosphere.

It can be up to 400 words, but I am having trouble finding a couple of introduction sentances that don't take up so many words, so I can focus on the main point of my experiences.

My current is: As a child, I was always wanting to immerse myself in a different culture, especially growing up in a small town with little diversity. My upbringing was not scarce of money, but no where near enough to fund a spontaneous trip of our ''wants''. After completing my second year of Spanish, the school set up an  opportunity to visit Costa Rica for only $2,000, which is a lot cheaper than planning the trip yourself. ]]> 2016-09-27 13:43:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126658130 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/essayprompt/wish/126658242 I am writing about a specific attribute, quality, or skill that distinguishes me from others. my introduction is "When I was 14 years old I struck my first arc.
