Jesus Said:

What is the personal statement prompt for 2009 freshmen fall applicants?

We Answered:

It's different for every college. Hopefully now or soon colleges will be making their applications available, so get all of them for the colleges you are interested in, then figure out what to write about. You will probably have to write several different personal statements.

Edward Said:

Would this idea work for this writing prompt?

We Answered:

Much of your idea rests on story not on dialogue. The assignment calls for a dialogue between characters rather than a scene involving others - the booing crowd, the ham sandwich, the fire etc.

You could twist the scene and have the dialogue between two people watching a circus scene which would fit your prompt better. You must make the dialogue interesting and have a point though.

Based on this writing prompt, would I get accepted for Honors English?

It's fine, but what matters most is your grade in your current course, and your teacher recommendation.
