Can you write a research paper based on life experiences. This is for a Sociology class and we could pick our own topic and I chose to write about my experiences and culture shock.

You should write an essay by yourself, but not asking someone to write for you. You never konw what happens until you really try. Come on, post your essay and I'l help you.

Are you asking whether it is possible or acceptable to write a paper based on life experiences? Possible, yes! Indeed, the best and most fresh writing usually occurs when students choose topics based on their life experiences.

But perhaps you are asking whether it is allowable to include personal life experiences in a sociology paper. Generally, yes. But you should ask your instructor. Probably s/he will want you to write about the idea of culture shock, as described in your textbook or an outside reading, and then illustrate the idea by describing your own experiences.

Some students worry about writing in the first person, as one needs to do when writing about personal history, in a school report. Just check with your teacher if that worries you.

And then yes, please do post your draft essay here for feedback.

Anecdotal evidence is the very core of sociology, so you should be on solid ground referencing your own experiences, though you should most definitely clear the topic with your teacher first. Just remember that you will have to try to step back from the experience and evaluate it objectively, even though you the memories you are describing may have some strong emotional resonances for you.
