I currently have all the essays filled out, along with a resume and all the possible letters of recommendation except for the optional essay. I am considering making my essay about my involvement as a head developer and director of the Southern California Junior Business Competition. It essentially allows middle school students from all of southern california to propose a business concept that would benefit their community. This is the first year the competition is happening and I have led the charge in its organization, development, and sponsorships. I was wondering whether I should just add it to my first personal statement or make it its own essay?
