So a secondary question asks about a time you had to show resilience to accomplish your goals. Which topic do you think would be best to talk about:
1. Senior year of highschool I was obese (275+ lb's) and in a matter of half the school year, I lost about 80 pounds (I talked about this in my PS since it's what led me to major in Kinesiology.)
2. A dog sledding trip in Minnesota where I lived outside in -20 degree weather for about 10 days and learned how to survive in harsh conditions.
3. My first semester of college I struggled with grades (ended up with a 3.05) since I didn't know how to study yet.
4. Something about my dad dying last year and staying focused on school (not really sure how I would spin this one.)
As you can see, I'm lucky enough to only really have first world problems to talk about.
Thoughts?
