Problem because I have too many things to choose from

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Feb 11, 2014 8:28 pm

I have so many things that have happened in my life. I grew up with an older dad and I cared for him and ran our family business from my twenties until age 30 when he passed.

I grew up in a rough part of NYC.

I am an MMA fighter and have a unique bunch of stories of being on the mat or in the cage.

I was bullied for being overweight as a child.


What would be the best thing to pick?

Family business or the MMA

The growing up in tough parts/being bullied is not unique at all.

Seriously, MMA is the new DJ.

The thing with MMA, although I'd find it interesting, not every admissions reader will because they may not be into sports. As well, you're going to be inclined to include cheesy puns and tactical metaphors, and I can't stomach reading that :lol:
