Math:  4 years of math* (e.g. courses in data science, mathematical modeling, statistics, linear algebra, trigonometry, calculus, and other advanced mathematics classes)
The math requirement leans towards the rigorous side.

In terms of ECs, they recommend:
Extracurricular activities
Family responsibilities
Hobbies
Paid work, including part-time jobs
Summer camps or programs
Travel
Volunteering

Surprised to find summer camps on this list.  Really plain-o activities, nothing like curing the cancer.  [/quote]

"The cohort includes the author of an award-winning children's book on immunology, the leader of a government-backed effort to reduce single-use plastics in Korean cafés, a violinist who performed at Carnegie Hall, and twin sisters who founded a program introducing neuroscience and psychology to middle and high schoolers around the globe. Members of this group of admitted students have also spoken at United Nations conferences, published collections of their poetry, supported family members and tutored their peers, presented their research, filed for patents, and launched businesses."
