Tell us about a time you struggled or failed during college. What did you learn from it? I worry so much about getting good grades that it takes a toll on my health and I get stuck in a loop of needing to do it and pushing it off. I bombed a test because I thought I could manage, but it showed me how I needed to focus on schooling while taking care of myself.
