College Essay Topics To Avoid

I like your idea.

When you say "Death" ?
So you mean we shouldn't write about the death of a loved one or some one close to you like your mom or dad, or you mean death in general.
Thank you

Good question. You can get away with mentioning a death of someone - anyone - in ONE line, but it ought not be the focus of your essay, or used as a "stimulus package" that attempts to energize your expanded understanding of the meaning of life. Not a good idea. Just be safe and stay away from the topic.

can i write about peoples ego(how everyone is selfish), world peace(how its never going to happen), stereotypes(the american way of thinking, even if you say no.. im not like that, you still have those thoughts inside of you), religion(worst man made invention in history). ?

and can you tell me about sat essays is it alike ? - i know i have to write about myself and my experiences stuff like that but don't get it really well

What you want to write about is a recipe for a disastrous essay. Stick to my recommendations throughout these postings. And good luck to you.

You have a good idea, but it's all in how you "frame" the issues. Be sure you don't come across as looking naive. For example, stay away from the Rodney King formula that asks, "Can't we all just get along?" Be realistic even if it meand your inability to resolve an issue. Admission readers prefer to see how you handle an issue as opposed to what you may suggest as a solution.

how about writing that the reason i want to be a doctor is because of a tv show i used to watch??? is that good?

I like it.

It could work as long as your ending indicates a writer who learned something valuable. Best of luck to you!
