I have seen this application a thousand times from friends and other CCer's. Just because you go to different countries and do all of these events does not mean that you are determined to succeed in college. You have to get rid of the I visited 35 countries part, it sounds like you are spoiled. Just say I am a well seasoned traveler, or something along that nature. Reading the application it seems wishy washy. Pick out one thing from your app and really point it out. I agree with previous post that the SAT and GPA are not up to par with other applicants. Extracurriculars are the last things colleges look at GPA is the first.
