Though schools change their secondary essays from year to year, most of the questions fall into eight broad categories:
Diversity
Personal Challenge
Most Important Activity
Research
Qualities/Characteristics
After College Activities
Long Term Goals
“Other” Information
Instead of writing a new answer to each question for every school, I suggest that you compose general answers to each of these eight questions and change them as needed to a particular application. This will save you an incredible amount of time and energy. It also gives you a chance to write exceptional essays that, with minor tweaking, can be used multiple times. Most of the secondary essays range from 250 to 500 words. I suggest writing each essay listed below in 500 words than editing as needed to fit each particular word requirement. Each essay listed has been taken from real secondary applications. Get that literary mind going, you may have hundreds of secondary essays to write in the next few months!
