[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's likeability, which of course is problematic since different people define it differently. But positive, curious and kind are the qualities that feed into it. It's compatible with driven, but not the same thing. Too many people use the essays to show how driven they are. That's evident in the high stats. You want to be likeable. [/quote] Doesn’t this favor extroverted popular social kids? [/quote] Not necessarily. It favors collaborative, liked kids. Not the same thing. They do want people who are going to engage - in class, on the quad, in the cafeteria, etc. So shy and insular is not good, but introverted is fine, if it's truly just the "like alone time to recharge" type. Again, three key traits are positive, curious and kind. Sometimes, the traditional "extroverted, popular kids" do not have these qualities. (Sometimes they do, of course.) Popular kids are not always popular because they're well liked. [/quote]
