Aspiring perhaps?

I don't see how I could use that to replace inspire... "<something> has been aspiring." :dontknow:

Thanks anyway. :smile:

"This book sparked/ignited my interest in Economics"

"It exploded my mind and left only 0.0000000000000000000000000001% of it. Isn't it awesome?!?!?!?!!?!!?!?!!?!!?1111"

Phrases which should never be used :rofl:

Ah in that context, perhaps not :redface:

Why not.

It's just do cliche and you would see loads of applicants with that phrase. It just doesn't make you stand out as an applicant - I'm afraid :sadnod:

I think inspirational/inspiring is equally cliched.

My whole PS is cliched.
