[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of kids are well rounded but selective in what they mention on their application. He doesn’t have to mention every single thing. The issue with too much scattered stuff is that rather than well rounded you risk being forgettable or interchangeable from a lot of other applicants.[/quote] This 100%. Just posted and reading through this thread. My kid didn't mention some of the scatter/unremarkable stuff that would have distracted from the application. He is at Cornell, but was admitted to several other T25. The application will have to be really thoughtful and will take time.[/quote] To both pp's: When you say didn't mention all the scattered stuff - I assume you mean they listed all their activities on the activity list (even if scattered) but focused on the most important activities, as related to intended major, in their supplementals. Correct?[/quote]
