@getmoney: check the charts. We have already given you an answer multiple times.

Go to the school, Hofstra for example. Set the cycle to last year and sort the chart by date submitted. You can see when people who applied in December heard back last cycle
helloo everyone, does someone want to read one paragraph i wrote for GW law for the diversoty statement and tell me if it is good/bad?
In school, I was met with questions like, “Why are Muslim women oppressed?” or “Do you need bodyguards when you travel to Jordan?”
shoudl i keep those questions in there or is too much?

I would cut the questions and go in media res.

But, I guess it also depends on what the next few paragraphs are like. I personally am not a fan of rhetorical questions, as they're generally not well done, but they could work.
I like the questions but maybe italics instead of quotes so it feels more internal
like quotes are so blocky and chunky sometimes whereas italics feels more like seamless thoughts but I think that only works if it matches your writing style! I used rhetoricals in mine that way and it seems to have been working out okay
