Tuesday's Brainstorms and Prompts

Tuesday’s Brainstorms:

Brainstorm #1: List as many parts of your personality as you can think of. For example, introvert or extrovert? Both? Artist, musician, baseball fan, etc. This list will be a lot like your avowed/ascribed identities brainstorm, but it will be different. You’re a different person now, with a different understanding of yourself.

Brainstorm #2: List obstacles you’ve faced in life, challenges you’ve overcome (or attempted to overcome), and / or times in your life you’ve failed.

Tuesday’s Prompts:

1. Some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story.

OR

2. The lessons we take from obstacles we encounter can be fundamental to later success. Recount a time when you faced a challenge, setback, or failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience?
