The New College Admissions Essay Questions

My Favorite Thing About Last Tuesday?
I would have to say my favorite thing about last tuesday was probably not going to school. It was probably going to work. School is almost to structured, to boring. At least at work theres always something new to do or new people to meet and help out.


What is your favorite ride at the amusement park? How does this reflect your approach to life?
I don't have a favorite ride at the amusement park, any amusement park actually. I've been to many of them, for my friends and family who enjoy going on terrifying, fast, rides at high altitudes for there own personal fun. Nothing about that seems "fun" to me. Some people say it gives them a "rush", feels like they're flying and nobody can stop them. Until the random guy that your putting your life into the hands of, presses a big button and stops all your "wonderful ardrenaline run feelings." Most people would say that if they choose to take the chance and go on the largest, most ridiculous ride in the park, then that makes the conclusion they are courageous, risk takers as people. I don't believe that my approach, or unapproach to amusement parks reflects my life at all. I take a lot of chances, I make a lot of decsions that i'm not always 100% sure of. For me, the rides that most people take pride in going on, make me feel sick and stressed out. I'm being smart for just going along with my friends but not taking action and going on the rides just because they want me to. I am an extermely independent person and intend to keep it that way.
