| "Worked on the state ACLU's post-9/11 Education Committee as a senior for a while. "
I'm sure that made your application stand out a great deal.
Your overall achievements fit what I suggested before as "excellent" ECs.
You have state/national awards for Quiz Bowl
An unusual state-level accomplishment in being on the state's education committee, which is a big accomplishment for a h.s. student
In addition, you have a very longterm commitment to athletics with strong leadership there, too.
Your ECs are clearly beyond what many students post who want to go to places like Ivies. |
