So I just finished the application today, as I am planning to apply early action. Honestly Im kind of scared to haha. Anyways, what is with the part of the application where it has you submit you 6 most important ec activities? How does this at all help the admission board develop the applicant that they review. I mean really I dont see its help to the application process.
Also, how much weight is cast on the personal statements? The word limit on this absolute ruined it for me. I still think mine are great, but really they can only get so good because you can barely explain the things youve done and their significance because 250 words is literally like 7 sentences.
Overall I dont see where the ec list or the statements help the board that much. So pretty much I had to make a huge resume with everything bc I didnt get to put but like 1/4 of what I wanted in the essays. Lets just hope they look at the "optional" resume...
