Yes its this one they just reworded it differently from last year.

Are you guys answering the first one as almost a diversity essay?
 
As a 2023 graduate, does the "If the prerequisite coursework was completed 5 years ago or longer, applicants must have been enrolled and completed coursework in a post-baccalaureate program or completed (enrolled) in a graduate program with upper level science coursework within the past 5 years" so I took my intro courses in 2019/2020 my freshman year... should I not even bother applying? I took advanced coursework all throughout college, don't know if that counts
