Hi guys,
I need some help deciding what to write about for the secondary challenge question. Like a lot of applicants, I don't have a major challenge to talk about so I thought maybe a short term or small challenge would suffice since it's more important to look at the way you handle the challenge and not the challenge itself. Here are some ideas I had:
1) Not really a short term challenge but I could talk about how I was a very small and scrawny kid growing up, even through high school, and how I was made fun of and ridiculed by my friends and peers.
2) I could talk about a difficult roommate situation in college, where I lived with 3 other guys, and none of us would clean the bathroom and it would escalate up to the point where we would be doing petty things.
3) Or maybe talk about adjusting to college life, how it was the first time I ever lived away from home (OOS), making friends, and there was once a situation where I was taking the train to go home on Thanksgiving but got lost trying to find the station.
Let me know if any of these examples sound good or if any of these "challenges" aren't even real challenges.
