[quote=Anonymous]After an ED1 deferral at T10, DC took a hard look at the application. Looked critically for major alignment and thought about how the application would compare to peers. Pivoted a small bit on a major at certain selective schools (more interdisciplinary, less pure STEM) and had much, much better luck. In to 3 T20s that cycle in RD (was rejected from the ED1 in RD) - but all of those applications had stronger narrative coherence and strategy. While the main personal essay wasn't redone (it prob should have been!), all of the supp essays were brand new, tighter, and polished by an editor. Same for activities description, honors/awards, Additional Info, and even the little Future Plans section. At Ivy. Doing well as a sophomore. It works out - put in the work over the next 2-2.5 weeks!!! Get outside help if you can't help.[/quote]
