I think that the quirky essay question is one of the most important elements in the process. Do not give into the temptation to write the same kind of cookie-cutter essay that you wrote for other colleges. Let your creative (or even weird) side come out. Also, talk about the value of liberal education.

Be genuine in your application. The University of Chicago really wants to see that a person is interested in learning.
