Hello there! Thanks for your question - prompts 1 and 5 have the same guide as they fall under the same archetype (Culture, Values, Diversity). This is also true for prompts 2 and 3. We'll be directing to specific breakdowns in the near future, but in the meantime, feel free to check out our post on how to write the Common App essays, as it has a specific guide for prompt 5: https://blog.collegevine.com/how-to-write-the-common-application-essays-2020-2021/. Hope this helps, and thanks for using CollegeVine!

Look at the essay tab on collegevine they have prompt breakdowns there and should be able to explain it to you.

Hope this helps and comment if you need clarification.
