I'm filling out an application for a school in Texas, and one of the essay questions really catches my eye. Essentially, it read:

"You're in your van, on the way to perform at the Battle of the Bands, and you find out the world will end soon after your set is done. What do you do?"

I'm going to work "Free Bird" in there, I just know it.

What strange questions have you seen?

I've never seen anything stupid like that on Uni applications here, though nearly all Universities use UCAS and require nothing else so there's not much variation.

Lmao @ Free Bird. If the world will end as soon as your set is done, you can play Free Bird for decades and buy people some time. The live version is like hours long... Lmao.
