Undergraduate / UVA- What is your favorite word and why- Coherence [16]

Here's what I'm getting:
-You like the word coherence because the word applies to you and the way you like having things ordered and simple.

"Simply the definition of a word is what most people seek in life."
-If you say "the word" it seems as though there is a set word everyone is looking for.

Revision of biggly's revision: "I make lists frequently "
-"frequent lists" would mean that the lists are frequent rather than the idea that you make lists frequently.

I'd stick with "Conventionally, however, it means..."
-This gives the reader the notion that the conventional definition is different from the literal definition.

I'm struggling to find a way you could add something, but as a suggestion may I suggest wrapping the response up with a sentence using "coherence" again? Towards the end it seems like you're deviating from the prompt. Again, this is if you feel that you still need something. Otherwise, it sounds great!

Undergraduate / "people who advanced despite nay-sayers" - Describe the world you come from [2]

Hey, this is just the intro of my response. I was curious as to whether or not this response would be too broad compared to telling a story about my family (seems too common) or my experience joining and working with a FIRST team.

Prompt: "Describe the world you come from; for example, your family, clubs, school, community, city, or town. How has that world shaped your dreams and aspirations? (200-250 words)"

The world I come from is filled with people who advanced despite the overwhelming number of nay-sayers, stood firmly with their beliefs against all odds, and ultimately changed the world-people like Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, Walt Disney, and Socrates. These types of people inspire me to contribute something to the world.
