Hello SDN community,

I was wondering if I could use my experience from high school, or does it have to be from college?

For example:

1. Explain in detail an experience in which you collaborated, worked or were exposed to diverse backgrounds different from your own. Please describe the impact the experience had on you.

I was going to use my encounter with racism when I moved to a school in New Jersey where Asians were an ethnic minority.

Sounds like a fine experience; I would use it.

Just curious, but what would the impact of that experience be?

Be careful when you write it not to come across as bitter or distrusting of another race
