Need help with topic, please help me pick one of these

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Jan 03, 2014 3:22 pm

Looking for a topic that will show strength without being too whiny. Let me know which of the topics below I should expand upon....

- First in family to go to college
- Growing up poor (single parent, dad rolled out early)
- Moving around a lot when growing up
- Proving myself to the world after C&F issue (trying to avoid this since I have a whole addendum for it)
- Working full-time through college

Thanks in advance

If you do it right you can touch on all of these topics, maybe not the C&F issue if you write a separate addendum for it. Regardless of what you write, or whether you write about a few of these topics, make sure to tie it all together by relating why this makes you want to attend law school, or why it makes you a strong law school student, or even why these experiences would contribute to the school.
