Hello,
I am working on my essays for my Class of 2027 application, and I was hoping to receive some opinions on a topic. For the "Difficulty" essay, #2 I believe, would it be a bad idea for me to discuss my religion? This has been a huge part of my life and I think it would be a good way to show who I am, but obviously there are some caveats. Is this a dangerous topic to approach and should be avoided altogether or can it be a valuable piece of my application? I thought about describing a difficult point without actually saying what religion I am, but this seems vague and as if I don't take pride in my story. My religion does not interfere with my ability to serve properly, so I can't imagine it would cause any issues. I was hoping to receive some opinions on this.
Thank you!
