Undergraduate / A valid idea? [CommonApp Essay] [5]
Im planning on writing my Common App essay on "Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken, or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you."
Im thinking Ill write it on my trip to Eastern Europe and my experience at Auschwitz (concentration camp).
I want to write it as if my view is changing and changing the deeper I experience the camp and the further I walk into it. So when I'm scared to enter the camp (as a Jew was scared to enter it during WWII) up until Im holding my last breath in the gas chamber.
Ill also write, for each room, an experience that relates to how Ive thought differently since the visit.
Im rushing to write this so Im leaving out detail on how I plan to write this but I hope I can get some info out of you all by the time I get home and begin this essay.
Thanks,
Joe
