[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Authenticity is a big factor as well. AOs can se through bullshit wording and embellishments It’s better to pursue a few passions deeply rather than join a ton of clubs. Same with essays and planned major - are you demonstrating actual, sustained interest or are you just chasing the big shiny ones? I’ll also add cohesive narrative. Does the application highlight the student in a well-rounded way and does the story tie together strongly the characteristics and traits that make the student unique and attractive? [/quote] I find this saddening. Adolescence is the time to explore varied interests, not being pigeonholed into pursuing narrow and sometimes esoteric so-called “passions” in the name of getting into Twhatever colleges. [/quote]
