What is your connection to rhetorical situation and why are you uniquely placed to write about it?
– My personal journey with self-reliance has played a pivotal role in my adaptation to college culture. I am uniquely placed to write about this experience because moving from Bangladesh to the USA for college marked a transformative journey, introducing not only the challenges of adapting to a new educational system but an entirely different cultural landscape. Despite difficulties, self-reliance emerged as a key element, gradually becoming a cornerstone that eased the challenges and helped me adjust to the new environment.
