🏫 College Advising

A student's essay describes a series of impactful but seemingly unrelated events. The advisor identifies a lack of cohesive narrative. What strategy should the advisor recommend to improve the essay's flow and unity?

A Eliminate all but one event to focus on a single experience.
B Rearrange the events chronologically to create a clearer timeline.
C Develop a central theme or question that connects the events and demonstrates personal growth.
D Add more descriptive language to each event to make them individually stronger.

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

A central theme or overarching question provides the narrative thread that connects seemingly disparate events, transforming them into a unified story that demonstrates the student's insights or personal evolution.
