Topic: Students are often told what classes they should take. If you had the opportunity to create a class, what would it be and why? (150 words)

My answer:

If I had the opportunity to create a class, it would be a Creative Thinking class.
I believe that everyone has a creative side. Some are just better at expressing it. I think a class that would help students kindle their creativity would be useful as it has been found that a creative person is better at problem solving, having better relationships, and even battling stress, than a less creative person would be.

In this class, there will be a group discussion of a certain problem or topic. The students will come up with innovative ideas to solve the problem. They will be allowed to express their ideas freely without fear of being judged.

I feel like it might be too short and not very descriptive. Any edits/suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you :)

Yamini, I believe that you should think of another class to imagine up for the statement. You see, there is already a class called "Creative Writing" in universities that are either elective or required classes in some majors like Journalism. The purpose of the class is to encourage the students to think creatively and set their thoughts down properly on paper. It encourages critical thinking, opinion making, imaginative content and similar topics to what you have indicated for your "Creative Thinking" class. Maybe you have a personal interest, hobby, or something similar that could be discussed as a potential class that you can create. For example, you can create a class in "Dog Language" with the objective of learning what the meaning is behind the barks of dogs. I know that sounds silly but those are the kinds of classes that normally catch the eye of the reviewer. Be creative and unique. Make sure that your idea is not already existing as a formal class in college.

Oh... right. I forgot that Creative Writing was a thing, haha. Thank you for reminding me! I'll think of something else.
