Hey everyone,

I am applying for the texas schools and I am having trouble coming up with a topic for the optional essay.

Optional essay prompt: Briefly state any unique circumstances or life experiences that are relevant to your application.

I thought about addressing my academic flaws and explaining that I had to work during undergrad to support myself, which affected my grades. But

I do not want it to look like an excuse.

Anyone with any experience in this department?!
