I got in to Auburn by talking about how I realized that my dirty room was a manifestation of how my mental status was , but my room also influenced my mental status. I explored that concept how far they can influence each other.

how you rank my hook/opening paragraph 🙏 Against the harsh glare of the fluorescence lights, the thin, slightly-mucus-looking glob, in all its glory, glowed luminously. Weighing a whopping 6 x 10⁻¹² grams, sitting comfortably in the vial between my thumb and finger, the beauty contained ~6.4 billion base pairs, extending to over two meters long when elongated. The genetic material stared back at us, serving as both a literal clump of nucleotides and a prelude to my metamorphosis

Can you rate mine? I turned up the volume all the way up, the remote sat tight in my hand, my eyes fixed on the TV as I waited to hear a name that felt like my own. Then I heard it.
“AND YOUR NEW MISS AMERICA IS… NINA DAVULURI!”

What are your thoughts on this hook. It is about my mediocre life. I know it’s not as catchy as the one’s you’ve read but this could be a draft if it’s a good enough idea to get improved. “Rice has been the base of every meal i have had for the last 16 years.”

Is an essay about how I had a math teacher who used to target and yell at me and how that affected my relationship with the subject any good?

“My dearest friends live nowhere near me. They don't live in the same state, nor do they live in the same country. In fact, they don't even live on the same planet. They reside hundreds of light years away, yet they've been there for me everytime I needed them.” ➡️“Many nights I still go out and look at the stars, their familiar pattern across the sky reminds me of the lesson I learned. You do not have to be perfect, or have the brightest light, you simply just have to let your light shine.” how looking at the stars helped me to be brave

is my intro good? “Gospel music blasting through the house, sunrays pouring through the open windows, and the rich smell of cinnamon and vanilla from the kitchen – that was my typical Sunday. But somewhere along the way, it was no longer my typical Sunday.”

is this hook good? "On paper, I was a success story the moment I became part of that 99-- but it took years for my body and mind to catch up to the success of that statistic" It's about kidney transplant

“She’s too young.”
I heard those words more times than I could count at thirteen. Sometimes they were whispered to my parents, other times said directly to me, usually followed by the same questions: University? Already? In Canada? By herself? They weren’t wrong. At thirteen, while most people my age were worrying about their next year of high school, I had already graduated. Soon, I would leave Nigeria for Canada and begin university, carrying an identity I had spent most of my childhood building: the gifted kid.

Is this a good start. Social interactions scare me. I never know what I’m supposed to say, how I’m supposed to act, or if I’m doing something wrong. It feels like everyone else got a guide that I somehow missed.

How about “I hit every pothole I see ,
Most people learn to avoid potholes. They see one in the road, move around it, and keep going. I hit every one I see. Not because I do not notice them, but because I notice them too much. I want to know what made them there, how deep they run, and why they were left unrepaired. Perhaps that is the simplest way to explain the way my mind works: I have never been particularly good at leaving things where I found them.”

Is this a good hook? I watched my friends play through the window, their laughter reaching me while my books and pencil lay forgotten on the table. It was around 3pm on Friday, just a few minutes after I got home from school. I wanted to join them in playing ampe, a game popular among young girls, more than I feared the scolding my father would give me for not focusing on my assignments. I was supposed to finish my assignments before heading to my 7pm evening class once I got back from the first one.

Would “just put the fries in the bag” and then talking about being a young manager at my local Mcdoanlds working with leadership skills? And balancing school, while working a lot

“The report card on my desk showed a c in honors chemistry, the grade felling like a permanent brand on my lifelong goal.” (It’s about how I want to be a vet, but my grades don’t match. Then I talk about how grades are only a small part.)

would an essay not exactly centered on but taken inspiration from the quote “ jack of all trades, master of none but often time a master of none is better than a master if one” work. i used the approach of perfectionism represented in figure skating as well with a story as my opening.
