~How about this:
"I deserve not only to attend college but I deserve to attend free of charge because I refused to be bothered by writing your lame essay and I got some complete stranger (unknown to either you or me) to do it for me. I was neither smart enough or ambitious enough to do it myself, and isn't that just the kind of student you want to blow your scholarship funds on rather than some nerd who actually does his own work (what a fool)? Anyway, I need the bread and you should give it to me just because I want it.
What I learned most in highschool was, if I could get suckers to do my work for me on Yahoo Answers, I wouldn't have to do it myself so I guess the most influential course I took use computer lab and as soon as the folks on that site tell me what school I should attend, and what my mafor should be, I'll let you know."

How many times are you going to post this question?

If you are in 9th grade you are just entering HS or still in JHS. What you ask is impossible, you haven't had any HS courses.

You could use a JHS course. Start with a course that you found interesting or a teacher who set a good example as a role model. Alternatively, you can do one on a course that you HATED. That, at least, would be different from 99% of other papers.

Say you had wanted to be a travel agent, but hated geography so much that you've changed your mind.

Hope that helped.

First make a list of the classes that you enjoy and think have provided you with things that may help you obtain a job that you are interested in.
Make a list of some jobs/careers you are interested in and think about which of your classes can help you obtain a job/career that you are interested in.
Make sure you cover why you think the course you are choosing to do your essay on will help you in life as far as careers go. Like if you want to be a chemist then a chemistry course in high school will be something that will help you in your career. If you want to be a writer then some creative writing courses will be to your benefit. If you want to be a fitness trainer then gym would play to your benefit.
Likewise lots of people change their minds and at your age it's okay to NOT know what it is you want to do in life as far as careers go.

So tell which course you feel has influenced you the most,and its finer points,like...how you are interested in the specific items taught in that course,and a college that specializes or has similar courses that can lead to a career in the field you are interested in doing once you graduate college..

I think it is a crazy idea. You are in 9th grade -- there are Seniors in college who still dont know their career path. Maybe you could take the opposite stance? What course has taught you what you DONT want to pursue? I mean, that is useful, because if you hate Math, you dont want to go into Engineering or Accounting, right?
