Finding a topic for your college admission


As the college admission requires the candidates to write about 500-flawless-word essay, and then you should have smart strategy in order to make it the best. One of some considerations before getting started to write your essay is by determining the right topic for your essay; keep in mind that you must write it under your very personal circumstances, and also your study objective to get the college admission.

There are a lot of strange theories about what constitutes a good topic. For some students, they believe that the topic should be “sweet” one; but for me, it does not matter how sweet your topic is, it is your strategy in finding the topic and you can deliver it properly for your admission.

You may start observing something unique around you; essay topic need not to be the serious one. Again, this is your personal circumstances how to employ it. Some people claim that personal topic such as pets, grandpa, family are ridiculous ones; this is not right assumption. To help you find the proper topic for your essay, here are some steps that you may follow to empower your self-reflection in order to make great essay.  

Understand the parameters of the assignment. The main purpose of your essay is to connect you to the person who is reading it. In order to make such a connection, you’ll want to tell a compelling story that shows you as an authentic and caring human being. If you can make it, you will have great shot!

Know your limit. You just have short essay; you cannot find the bid theme or topic for your college admission essay. You may start from your personal experience in class or teaching and learning, small case study that you intend to know and understand and get involved in, and so forth. That might be a good topic, showing you as a person who is open to learning from others. Through that focusing-down process, potential topics should start to appear and take shape.

Ask yourself. Utilize yourself as the object and subject of observation in finding the personality, the topic, and the correlation between the two. The point is on how you can employ the topic into your personal perception and you can make it by having good delivery; start asking some questions to help you boosting your idea and your other side of personality—those are waiting for being written.

Keep in mind: Everyone has a story to tell. It’s just a matter of discovering that story.
