My Maryland essay I slaved over b/c it was my 1st choice school. Texas and GT essays were done in less than an hour over the internet, with a quick read over by one of my co-workers. (ironic how that all worked out eh?)

EC's:
Eagle Scout (along with a bunch of leadership positions)
Varsity Lacrosse all 4 years (really helped with GT)
32 hr a week job, at the time I applied I was also working another 20 hr and added that as well.
2002 NSCA State Champ; 02, 03 All State teams (I think those really helped with TX, considering NSCA's headquarters is right there)
NHS (secretary..but didnt do much)
Peer Mediator
Student Council ( was treasurer but again...just a waste of time)

MISC:
I have a security clearance, and I believed that helped quite a bit

Im probably forgetting stuff but oh well..
