[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this spike thing is an internet phenomenon and has gotten further promotion by consultants. Never heard an admissions rep express an interest in this. [/quote] I have heard Dean J mention an interest with “depth” which is the same thing.[/quote] Welp. https://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/2022/09/the-spike-in-activity-section-for-uva.html She basically says the spike is a new word for an old piece of advice that isn’t necessary. “When I look at your activity list, I simply want to see that you're making a contribution in some area of your life. Activities don't have to be related to each other. Activities don't have to be related to your academic interests. Activities should be rewarding, interesting, and fun. You shouldn't be afraid to try something because it doesn't fit into a strategy.” [/quote]
