    "My Everyday Life with an Economist Monk" is my essay topic.
    Focus: curiosity+ resilience/peace+ leadership
    I chose it because I'm volunteering in ISKCON, and my mentor there is a monk who was previously an economist/banker. I've learned a lot from him. Should I write about this? Also, please give me tips for my essay.

      There are tons more tips in my other UA-cam videos! Hope you'll subscribe and follow along.
      And yes, that topic could work! A good question to ask yourself is: "Does this topic demonstrate the skills, qualities, values, and interests I offer the school as an incoming student?"
      If yes, then start outlining and writing your first drafts. If no, go back to brainstorming!

    this video is gonna make me CRY I WROTE MY CAE DRAFT YESTERDAY AND JUST STUMBLED UPON THIS VIDEO AND I SEE THAT WE HAVE BOTH LITERALLY USED THE EXACT SAME METAPHOR IN THE EXACT SAME WAY 😭DO I HAVE TO REWRITE MY ESSAY

      Hm, if you plagiarized (whether intentionally or unintentionally), you might consider changing some of the content in your essay. If your essay topic is obviously different but you used the same metaphor to describe an experience, that isn't necessarily considered plagiarism.

    Hi, college essay guy! Could you give me some opinions and feedback on an idea that I want to write about for my personal statement. So i wanted to maybe write something about growing up in a family buffet restaurant and how the different dishes in the buffet connects to a different point of my life. For example, some people would love certain dishes and it would run out quick, and i would then link that to how joy (or another memory) in my life isn’t always permanent and that it runs out sometimes for a reason and that reason is for the best. Do you think these two topics could work out? Thank you for all these tips. I enjoy watching your videos by the way!

    Hello Ethan! Hope you’re doing well.
    I was hoping if subtly mentioning about videogaming (80word mentioning how I had to fight toxicity both in gaming and in my home country, then bullet pointed: one tournament win, my rank, forming connections w other female players of my country) in my additional info is a red flag?
    I’ve concerns about how AO’s view videogaming and dont want to risk it all since there’s little info on it.
    I look forward to your reply!

    Hey College Essay Guy! I'm curious about your opinion of a topic I thought of where I write about an injury that led me to a subject (biomed engineering) I am immersed in. I'm thinking of making the 1st paragraph about the injury, then the 2nd being me finding the subject, and finally the last paragraphs being about prosthetics and bme inventions. I'm also curious on how I can implement qualities and values on this topic if it is a good one.
