1.Question Here: Q2 Creativity
Every person has a creative side, and it can be expressed in many ways: problem solving,
original and innovative thinking, and artistically, to name a few. Describe how you
express your creative side.
Things to consider: What does creativity mean to you? Do you have a creative skill that is
important to you? What have you been able to do with that skill? If you used creativity to solve a
problem, what was your solution? What are the steps you took to solve the problem? How does
your creativity influence your decisions inside or outside the classroom? Does your creativity
relate to your major or a future career?

Creativity can be expressed in so many different ways, but for me it is about going above and
beyond of what is expected of me. When I do my homework I add color or try to do something
in a different manner that still applies to the overall topic. I love getting my hands dirty and
actually trying things out for myself. This has allowed me to learn so much more than by
simply watching because you can add or take away one small component which can make
such a huge difference in the result. Creating and making new things that better fit my needs is
something I enjoy doing. I see it this way, if you always adhere to what is normal than you
will never be able to invent something that could possibly save someones life or make the
world a better place. Sometimes you have to think outside the box and explore different things
even if they seem like they would never go together. I enjoy watching and learning to do new
things and then trying them out myself to see the outcome or what I can do to make it into
something that I will enjoy more. I feel like I have many creative sides to me because I love to
personalize things to where they are something I enjoy. As well as enjoy coming up with new
and original ideas for stuff like posters, videos, etc. I always thought creativity went with art,
but I have learned that it is not the case. That expressing your creative side can mean so much
more.
If you choose to write about educational barriers youve faced, how did you overcome or strive
to overcome them? What personal characteristics or skills did you call on to overcome this
challenge? How did overcoming this barrier help shape who are you today?

A significant educational opportunity I have taken advantage of is using fee waivers to take
the SAT and ACT twice to meet the requirements for college applications. These two test are
very expensive so getting them for free has been one huge boost for me because it takes me
one step closer to being accepted into my dream college. These test will help the colleges
determine my potential and how much work I have been putting into my education. This also
opens up more opportunities to achieve a higher education which is something I strive for.
Education to me is the key to a bright and successful future. My family is a huge part in why I
want to go to college to give them a better life and make them proud to say that I am their
daughter. I am the third in my family to go to college so I want to continue that trend so that
my younger sister also follows in the same footsteps. Although these tests seem like a small
part of my journey into college, to me, they are a very important step into that future that I
hope with all of my heart to obtain. These opportunities have led me to become the person I
am today. I am the type of person who invests all my time and energy into my work and I am
very passionate about learning. I also want to continue my education for myself because I have
been given such an amazing opportunity to have the option of going to college open and it has
taken me a lot of time and dedication to obtain, so I am not giving up now.
evidently take my love for math into consideration. Although I have been able to succeed in all
academic subjects at school math has been the one that has motivated me to want to achieve
more in life. It has also made me a smart shopper with understanding how discounts work and
in many more math related real life scenarios. Who would have ever thought that what they
teach you in math class you would actually use in real life well at least some of it? Math is a
big part of my life because we use money and numbers to calculate so many things. It is a
subject that I get excited to learn about and I am not miserable when I have to solve a long or
difficult problem. In math, I have been able to teach others and find easier ways of solving
problems. There are so many resources to learn and so many more problems to solve. Math
has not only helped me with class, but in real life as well.
had the opportunity to go to school. So now that I have that opportunity I want to take make
sure that I take it and run as far as I possibly can by taking advantage of every single
opportunity that allows me to succeed in college.
